The present study evaluated the antioxidant potential of Vernonia condensata Baker (Asteraceae). Dried and powdered leaves were exhaustively extracted with ethanol by static maceration followed by partition to obtain the hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, and butanol fractions. Total phenols and flavonoids contents were determined through spectrophotometry and flavonoids were identified by HPLC-DAD system. The antioxidant activity was assessed by DPPH radical scavenging activity, TLC-bioautography, reducing power of Fe(+3), phosphomolybdenum, and TBA assays. The total phenolic content and total flavonoids ranged from 0.19 to 23.11 g/100 g and from 0.13 to 4.10 g/100 g, respectively. The flavonoids apigenin and luteolin were identified in the ethyl acetate fraction. The IC50 of DPPH assay varied from 4.28 to 75.10 µg/mL and TLC-bioautography detected the antioxidant compounds. The reducing power of Fe(+3) was 19.98 to 336.48 μg/mL, while the reaction with phosphomolybdenum ranged from 13.54% to 32.63% and 56.02% to 135.00% considering ascorbic acid and rutin as reference, respectively. At 30 mg/mL, the ethanolic extract and fractions revealed significant effect against lipid peroxidation. All these data sustain that V. condensata is an important and promising source of bioactive substances with antioxidant activity.
本研究评估了 Vernonia condensata Baker(菊科)的抗氧化潜力。将干燥和粉碎的叶子用乙醇进行静态浸提,然后进行分配,以获得正己烷、二氯甲烷、乙酸乙酯和正丁醇部分。通过分光光度法测定总酚和类黄酮含量,并通过 HPLC-DAD 系统鉴定类黄酮。通过 DPPH 自由基清除活性、TLC-生物自显影、Fe(+3)还原能力、磷钼酸盐和 TBA 测定评估抗氧化活性。总酚含量和总类黄酮含量分别在 0.19 至 23.11 μg/100 g 和 0.13 至 4.10 g/100 g 之间。在乙酸乙酯部分鉴定出类黄酮芹菜素和木樨草素。DPPH 测定的 IC50 范围为 4.28 至 75.10 μg/mL,TLC-生物自显影检测到抗氧化化合物。Fe(+3)的还原能力为 19.98 至 336.48 μg/mL,而与磷钼酸盐的反应分别为 13.54%至 32.63%和 56.02%至 135.00%,以抗坏血酸和芦丁为参考。在 30 mg/mL 时,乙醇提取物和馏分对脂质过氧化有显著作用。所有这些数据表明,V. condensata 是一种具有抗氧化活性的生物活性物质的重要且有前途的来源。
