In the present work, phytochemical contents (total phenolic content, total flavonoids, and condensed tannins), antioxidant potentials, and antimicrobial activities of three plants in the Mediterranean genus Erodium (, , and ) from the Tunisia region were analyzed. The results showed that contained high levels of polyphenols, flavonoids, and tannins. Therefore, possesses high antioxidant activities (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and ferric reducing antioxidant power scavenging activities), and high inhibition of linoleic acid oxidation. All three plants exhibited high antimicrobial activities. This study highlights tree plants' importance as dietary sources for natural antioxidants can be used in traditional medicine and the pharmaceutical industry.
在本研究中,对来自突尼斯地区的地中海植物属牻牛儿苗科(牻牛儿苗、长根牻牛儿苗和香叶天竺葵)的三种植物的植物化学成分(总酚含量、总黄酮和缩合单宁)、抗氧化能力和抗菌活性进行了分析。结果表明,牻牛儿苗含有高水平的多酚、黄酮和单宁。因此,牻牛儿苗具有较高的抗氧化活性(2,2-二苯基-1-苦基肼自由基清除活性和铁还原抗氧化能力),并且对亚油酸氧化具有较高的抑制作用。所有三种植物均表现出较高的抗菌活性。本研究强调了这三种植物作为天然抗氧化剂膳食来源的重要性,可用于传统医学和制药工业。
