ABSTRACT

 

Kazemipour N, Nikbin M, Taher Maghsoodlou M, Sepehrimanesh M., Antioxidant effects of extracts of Scutellaria lute-caerulea In vitro, Onl J Vet Res., 18(2):75-81, 2014. In vitro antioxidant effects of  extracts of Scutellaria lute-caerulea (Bornm. & Snit.), are reported. Ethanol, chloroform, ethylacetae and aqueous leaf extracts were tested against DPPH, β-carotene/linoleic acid and FRAP for antioxidant activity. Ethanol extract was the most potent radical scavenger with IC50 value of 81.37 µg/ml in DPPH assay and antioxidant activity of 67 mmol Fe2+/g sample in FRAP assay. Using the β-carotene/linoleic acid assay, ethyl acetate extract was the most potent radical scavenger with the IC50 value was 829.7 µg/ml. Results suggest that leaf extracts oif S. luteo-caerulea exhibit antioxidant properties In Vitro.

 

 Key words: Radical scavenger, Antioxidant activity, Lamiaceae, DPPH, FRAP, β-carotene/linoleic acid.
