Antioxidant activity of a selection of commonly occurring wild plants growing in Beni-Sueif governorate, Upper Egypt, has been tested. The plants selected are Tamarix nilotica, Ambrosia maritima, Zygophyllum coccenium, Conyza dioscoridis, Chenopodium ambrosioides, and Calotropis procera. The in vitro antioxidant assays used in this study were 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, superoxide anion scavenging activity and iron chelating activity. Extracts prepared from the leaves and flowers of Tamarix nilotica have shown the highest antioxidant activity in the three kinds of assay.
对埃及上埃及贝尼苏韦夫省生长的一些常见野生植物的抗氧化活性进行了测试。所选植物为紫穗槐、滨海豚草、蒺藜科驼蹄瓣、科尼扎·迪斯科里迪斯、土荆芥和牛角瓜。本研究中使用的体外抗氧化试验为1,1-二苯基-2-苦基肼（DPPH）自由基清除活性、超氧阴离子清除活性和铁螯合活性。从紫穗槐的叶子和花朵中制备的提取物在这三种试验中显示出最高的抗氧化活性。
