Abstract:
Antioxidant and antiradical activities of ferulates (i.e., ferulic acid, isoferulic acid, coniferyl aldehyde, and methyl ferulate) were investigated using a &beta;-carotene-linoleate model system and a DPPH radical scavenging assay, respectively. Compounds so tested exhibited antioxidant and antiradical properties to varying degrees. Methyl ferulate showed the strongest antioxidant activity, whereas the parent phenolic acid was the most active ferulate to scavenge the DPPH radical (DPPH<sup>&middot;</sup>). Isoferulic acid at concentrations ranging from 10 to 100 nmol/assay did not impart an antiradical efficacy; this may be attributed to the location of the hydroxyl group in the meta position on the aromatic ring. &nbsp;

Abstract:
Today, there is an increasing interest in antioxidants, especially to prevent the known harmful effects of free radicals in human metabolism and their deterioration during processing and storage of fatty foods. In both cases, natural-source antioxidants are preferred over synthetic antioxidants. So, there has been a parallel increase in the use of assays to estimate antioxidant efficacy in human metabolism and food systems. Today, there are many bioanalytical methods that measure the antioxidant effect. Of these, the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazil (DPPH) removing assay is the most putative, popular, and commonly used method to determine antioxidant ability. In this review, a general approach to the DPPH radical scavenging assay has been taken. In this context, many studies, including attempts to adapt the DPPH radical scavenging method to different analytes, search for the highest antioxidant activity values, and optimize the method of measurement, have previously been performed. Therefore, it is highly important to introduce measures aimed at standardizing the conditions of the DPPH radical scavenging activity, including the various reaction media suitable for this assay. For this aim, the chemical and basic principles of DPPH free radical scavenging are defined and discussed in an outline. In addition, this study describes and defines the basic sections of DPPH free radical scavenging in food and biological systems. Additionally, some chemical, critical, and technical details of the DPPH free radical removal method are given. This is a simple assay in which the prospective compounds or herbal extracts are mixed with the DPPH solution and their absorbance is measured after a certain period. However, despite rapid advances in instrumental techniques and analysis, this method has not undergone extreme modification. This study presents detailed information about the DPPH method and an in-depth review of different developments.

Abstract:
The use of F. religiosa might be beneficial in inflammatory illnesses and can be used for a variety of health conditions. In this article, we studied the identification of antioxidants using (DPPH) 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazylradical scavenging activity in Ficus religiosa, as F. religiosa is an important herbal plant, and every part of it has various medicinal properties such as antibacterial properties that can be used by the researchers in the development and design of various new drugs. The 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) is a popular, quick, easy, and affordable approach for the measurement of antioxidant properties that includes the use of the free radicals used for assessing the potential of substances to serve as hydrogen providers or free-radical scavengers (FRS). The technique of DPPH testing is associated with the elimination of DPPH, which would be a stabilized free radical. The free-radical DPPH interacts with an odd electron to yield a strong absorbance at 517 nm, i.e., a purple hue. An FRS antioxidant, for example, reacts to DPPH to form DPPHH, which has a lower absorbance than DPPH because of the lower amount of hydrogen. It is radical in comparison to the DPPH-H form, because it causes decolorization, or a yellow hue, as the number of electrons absorbed increases. Decolorization affects the lowering capacity significantly. As soon as the DPPH solutions are combined with the hydrogen atom source, the lower state of diphenylpicrylhydrazine is formed, shedding its violet color. To explain the processes behind the DPPH tests, as well as their applicability to Ficus religiosa (F. religiosa) in the manufacture of metal oxide nanoparticles, in particular MgO, and their influence on antioxidants, a specimen from the test was chosen for further study. According to our findings, F. religiosa has antioxidant qualities and may be useful in the treatment of disorders caused by free radicals.

Abstract:
The consumption of foods that are high in antioxidant capacity is believed to contribute to good health. Moreover, the addition of highly antioxidant compounds to foods is believed to prevent food deterioration. Among the known antioxidants in food, phenols have been identified as the primary antioxidants. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay is a simple, inexpensive, and rapid method widely used to evaluate the antioxidant capacity. Although the results of the DPPH assay depend on conditions such as the reaction time and concentration, the experimental conditions have not been standardized. Further, previous research that compared the antioxidant capacity determined through the DPPH assay largely focused on the differences in the specific substructures of approximately several dozen compounds. In this study, we conducted DPPH assays on 169 phenols under the same experimental conditions and summarized the correlation between their structures and activity. This DPPH assay study is the first single-laboratory investigation of the largest number of components in terms of their Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacities. Further, the analysis method was reproduced in an interlaboratory collaborative study, enabling its application in the reproduction and comparison of measurements in other laboratories.

Abstract:
Composition and antioxidant activity of grape seed extract (GSE) obtained from red grape varietes are very well documented, in contrast to the white varietes. This paper presents the results of polyphenols content of ethyl acetate extract of grape seeds, obtained from two white grape varieties, Italian Riesling and Zupljanka, and their antioxidant activity on the stable DPPH radical. The influence of the addition of GSE to raspberry juice on the DPPH radical was also examined. Content of total polyphenols in GSEs ranged between 81.6 and 82.8% (w/w), and the contetn of flavan-3-ols between 66.2 and 91.0% (w/w). HPLC results showed that the most abundant components in the extract were (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin for both grape varieties. All tested GSEs exhibited good antioxidant activity. IC50 values for the GSEs of Italian Riesling and Zupljanka were 0.79 and 0.95 mg sample/mg DPPH radical, respectivelly. Since the GSE of Italian Riesling possesed stronger antioxidant activity, it was used for further experiments. The IC50 value for raspberry juice was 4.18 mg raspberry juice/mg DPPH. The raspberry juice with addition of 0.60 ?g/mL of GSE showed antioxidant activity of 39.2%. The same juice with the threefold concentration of vitamin C (1.81 ?g/ml) exhibited similar antioxidant activity (33.9%). Antioxidant activity of the same amount of juice without added antioxidants was lower (15.7%). The results showed that the GSE of white varietes could be considered as a good functional food ingredient.

Abstract:
The plant Apamarg (Achyranthes aspera L.) was tested for antibacterial (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus), antifungal (Aspergillus niger and Fusarium oxysporum) activities. For extraction, methanol extract was chosen. The DPPH Radical Scavenging activity was used to test the antioxidant action. The current study reveals a link between indigenous Achyranthes aspera L. treatment and in vitro antibacterial and antifungal responses. Ascorbic acid had the lowest DPPH scavenging activity than methanolic extracts of Achyranthes aspera L., which exhibited antioxidant activity. The effects of DPPH radical scavenging are dose-dependent. The stems and roots of Achyranthes aspera L. are high in antioxidants that could be utilized as a natural supplier of antioxidants and antimicrobial components.

Abstract:
The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•) assay is widely used to determine the antioxidant activity of food products and extracts. However, the common DPPH• protocol uses a two-point measurement and does not give information about the kinetics of the reaction. A novel stoichio-kinetic model applied in this study monitors the consumption of DPPH• by common antioxidants following the second order reaction. The fitting of such decay yields the rate constant k1, which describes the main reaction between antioxidants and DPPH•, and the rate constant k2, which is attributed to a slower side reaction considering the products generated between the transient radicals (AO•) and another molecule of DPPH•. The model was first applied to antioxidant standards. Sinapic acid, Trolox and ascorbic and chlorogenic acids did not show any side reaction. Instead gallic, ferulic and caffeic acids achieved the best fitting with k2. The products of the side reaction for these compounds were confirmed and identified with high-resolution mass spectrometry. Finally, the kinetic model was applied to evaluate the antioxidant activity of eight herbal extracts. This study suggests a new kinetic approach to standardize the common DPPH• assay for the determination of antioxidant activity.

Abstract:
Free radicals can cause many diseases, such as cancer. Antioxidant is a compound that could scavenge free radicals. One of the natural antioxidants is guava. The goals of this research were to investigate the antioxidant activity of leaves and fruit of crystal guava by determining the value of the Antioxidant Activity Index (AAI) using DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP; evaluate the total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC); analyse the correlation between the TPC and TFC with AAI DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP, and analyse the correlation between the 3 methods. Extraction was performed by the reflux method using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol. Determination of AAI DPPH, CUPRAC, FRAP, the TPC, and the TFC was performed by UV-visible spectrophotometry. The correlation of the TPC and TFC with AAI DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP and, also, the correlation of the 3 methods were investigated by Pearson’s method. The antioxidant activity of leaves and fruit extracts of crystal guava showed AAI DPPH in the range of 0.33–56.46, CUPRAC 0.20–7.31, and FRAP 1.65–59.89. The highest TPC was given by ethanol leaf extracts (49.55 ± 1.45 g GAE/100 g), while the highest TFC was for n-hexane leaf extracts (9.68 ± 0.210 g QE/100 g). The TPC of leaves extract had a significantly positive correlation with AAI DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP. AAI DPPH, AAI CUPRAC, and AAI FRAP of leaves and fruit extract of crystal guava showed a significantly positive correlation. In general, leaves extract had strong antioxidant activity by the three methods. For the highest antioxidant activity, ethanol was the best solvent for extraction leaves and ethyl acetate for extraction fruit of crystal guava. The TPC in leaves extract contributed to the antioxidant activity by DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP methods. The Antioxidant activity of leaves and fruit extracts of crystal guava was linear by the three methods.

Abstract:
In recent years, it has attracted great attention to determine and appraise synthetic antioxidants with high free radical scavenging capacity associated with various disorders. Because synthetic antioxidants are widely used in place of native antioxidants as they are influential and less expensive. In this study, the antioxidant activity of the newly synthesized asymmetric diimine Schiff base was determined by using DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, ferrous ion chelation (FIC) activity and total antioxidant activity (Phosphomolybdenum assay) methods. The effective concentration (IC50) values were calculated for the Schiff base and standards. According to the results of DPPH radical scavenging, ferrous ion chelation and total antioxidant methods, Schiff base showed a well antioxidant activity. It was determined that Schiff base is reactive towards DPPH radicals (IC50, 180.0 μM) and especially Fe+2 ions (IC50, 76.3 μM). It was also found that it actively reduces the Mo(VI) ion to the Mo(V) form (IC50, 121.5 μM). The our results indicate Schiff base, may be a fine candidate as a source of synthetic antioxidants and possibly strong drug.

Abstract:
Some antioxidant activities of extracts of irradiated black pepper (Piper nigrum) were evaluated. The ground black pepper was exposed to gamma-irradiation at doses from 5 to 30 kGy. The effect of irradiation on antioxidant properties of black pepper extracts was investigated by these methods: radical scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals, determination of reducing power, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances assay and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR). Irradiation resulted in a decrease of DPPH antiradical activity of black pepper extracts according to dose of irradiation. Reducing power was not changed by action of irradiation. Very important and sensitive differences in antioxidant activity of irradiated black pepper were investigated by EPR spectrometry and thiobarbituric acid method.

Abstract:
Essential oils are an important source of natural antioxidants and multiple methods have been established for evaluation of their overall antioxidant activity, however, the antioxidant activities of their compounds are less investigated. In the present study, the hyphenation of 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)-gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry (MS) offline and high-speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC) is established for efficient screening, identification, and isolation of antioxidants from essential oils and applied to the essential oil of Curcuma wenyujin Y.H. Chen et C. Ling. Five compounds are preliminarily screened as antioxidants using DPPH-GC according to the reduction of GC peak areas of each compound after reaction with DPPH and then identified as eucalyptol (7.66%), camphor (2.34%), δ-elemene (1.15%), β-elemene (7.10%), and curzerene (15.77%) using GC-MS. Moreover, these five compounds are isolated by HSCCC using two solvent systems, n-hexane-acetonitrile-ethanol (5:3:2, v/v) and n-hexane-acetonitrile-acetone (4:3:1, v/v), and subjected to DPPH scavenging assay. Camphor, δ-elemene, and β-elemene show weak DPPH scavenging activity, while curzerene and eucalyptol show moderate DPPH scavenging activity. Notably, a significant synergistic effect on DPPH scavenging is found between curzerene and eucalyptol. The result demonstrated that off-line DPPH-GC-MS coupling CCC is an efficient method for screening, identification, and separation of antioxidant compounds in essential oil

Abstract:
Phenolic content and antioxidant activity of two common fruits of Bangladesh, namely Phyllunthus emblica and Elaeocarpus floribundus, were measured in water, methanol, ethanol, acetone and hexane extracts. Several in vitro models including phosphomolybdenum assay, DPPH free radical scavenging assay, FRAP assay and reducing power assay were used to assess the antioxidant activity of these extracts in comparison with reference antioxidants. Between the two fruits, P. emblica showed higher phenolic content and antioxidant activity in all the solvents used. In the DPPH scavenging assay, the activity of P. emblica extracts was close to reference antioxidants, ascorbic acid and BHT. Besides, considering the solvents used, extracts of both fruits had the highest phenolic and antioxidant activity in polar solvents. The correlation coefficient between total phenolics and antioxidant activities was found statistically significant. These findings suggest that P. emblica could be an excellent antioxidant resource for industries like food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics.

Abstract:
Many people around the world believed that herbal tea had a lot of antioxidants contained in it, thus it was widely drunk all over the world. However, the antioxidant capacities of herbal tea may be various because it is affected by the usage of different plants as its primary ingredient. As a result, this study examines the antioxidant activity of herbal tea made from dried Citrus sp. and Clitoria ternatea flower petals. The antioxidant potential was assessed by performing a DPPH and H2O2 scavenging activity assay on 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging activity assay, total phenolic, and flavonoid content assay, ABTS reduction, and FRAP assay. This study showed that pure telang (Clitoria ternatea) herbal tea has antioxidant properties. Dried Telang (Clitoria ternatea) tea had the highest activity of antioxidants as we refer to the results of it had the highest activity value in DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assay and also had the lowest IC-50 value. Followed by TEMON infusion which showed the second-highest antioxidant activity after pure telang infusion. The decrease in antioxidant activity in the mixture of telang and lemon was due to the mixture of lemons which tended to have the lowest antioxidant activity among the three types of infusions tested. The addition of dried lemon has the aim of enhancing the flavor of the tea infusion.

Abstract:
Antioxidants are compounds that can protect body cells from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage body cells and cause oxidative stress. Antioxidants work by neutralizing free radicals to protect cells from damage and help maintain overall health. This study aims to test the antioxidant potential of ethanol extract of Halimeda opuntia algae taken from the southern coast of Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi. Antioxidant activity was tested using DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) method. The decrease in absorbance value observed directly illustrates the decrease in the number of DPPH radicals remaining after the reaction between the extract and DPPH. The test results showed antioxidant levels that occurred at concentrations of 25 ppm (52.925%), 50 ppm (61.659%), 75 ppm (65.304%), and 100 ppm (70.112%). The test results show that the higher the concentration of ethanol extract of Halimeda opuntia algae, the stronger its ability to inhibit DPPH radicals. Therefore, it can be concluded that the highest antioxidant content is found at a concentration of 100 ppm with an average percent inhibition of 70.112%.

Abstract:
The study was carried outto investigate the antioxidant activity of fungi isolated from soil of different areas of Punjab, India and compare their efficiency with a known antioxidant, ascorbic acid. The antioxidant potential of fungal extracts was quantified by DPPH and reducing power assay. Total phenolic contents were estimated using Folins-Ciocalteau (FC) reagent. Out of 113 fungal isolates selected, 51 were having antioxidant potential and these were further assayed quantitatively. All of these showed good activity against DPPH radical while 32 of these isolates demonstrated reducing potential also. In addition, some were equally good as ascorbic acid. The present study demonstrated potential of soil fungi to have antioxidant activity similar to plants and mushrooms. High phenolic content of fungi further highlight their significance as new sources of natural antioxidants. These fungi may provide easier set up for production and purification of natural antioxidants as compared to higher plants.

Abstract:
Pule (Alstonia scholaris) is one of the plants that are empirically often used in medicine. Pule bark contains flavonoids which can generally be used as antioxidants. This study aims to determine the content of secondary metabolites and antioxidant activity of the methanol extract of pule bark by determining the IC50 value of the extract. The secondary metabolite test was carried out by reacting the extract with phenolic test reagents, steroids, terpenoids, saponins, flavonoids and alkaloids. The antioxidant activity test was carried out using the DPPH method (2,2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazil). Antioxidant activity was measured by the ability of the methanol extract of Pule bark to reduce DPPH which was measured using a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer so that absorbance data was obtained and then processed by linear regression method. The results showed that the extract contained phenolic and flavonoid compounds. While the DPPH test showed that the extract had weak antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 472.473 ppm.

Abstract:
Application of plant-derived colorants in products, i.e., cosmetics or food, apart from imparting the desired color without harming the environment, may provide other benefits. Valuable ingredients in cosmetic formulations include antioxidants showing an advantageous effect on the skin by neutralizing free radicals that accelerate the aging process and cause skin defects. Antioxidant activity can be determined by chemical-based methods. The aim of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity of plant-derived colorants (purple and red colorant) by two methods: CUPRAC and DPPH free-radical scavenging activity. Antioxidant activity evaluation using both methods for colorants samples was also performed after 5, 15, 30, and 60 min of exposure to UVC irradiation. The results obtained by CUPRAC method were for purple and red colorant unexposed samples as follows: 6.87 ± 0.09 and 4.48 ± 0.14 mg/100 mg colorant expressed as caffeic acid equivalent, respectively. UVC treatment did not affect the results of the antioxidant activity for red colorant and for the purple one only a slight influence was observed. DPPH free-radical scavenging activity for unexposed samples was 70.06 ± 7.74% DPPH/100 mg colorant for the red colorant and 96.11 ± 3.80% DPPH/100 mg colorant for the purple one.

Abstract:
Development of a paper-based antioxidant sensor using DPPH reagent. This sensor is made using a screen-printing method to create a 5 mm diameter detection zone which is immobilized with DPPH reagents. The analysis was carried out in one step by immobilizing antioxidants/samples in the detection zone. After reduction by antioxidants, DPPH radicals become stable DPPH molecules, resulting in a change in color from purple to pale yellow. The purple intensity of DPPH was inversely proportional to the antioxidant activity of the sample and was measured using the help of ImageJ software. The optimal conditions for using DPPH reagents at a concentration of 5 mM and the volume in each detection zone were 3 µL. Characterization of this sensor analysis was carried out on gallic acid with the response time in the 12-minute, linearity with r = 0,9895, detection limit (LOD) value 0,0349 mM GAE, the quantitation limit (LOQ) value was 0,1164 mM GAE, with precision <2% (RSD), and meets the accuracy range of 97-103%. This sensor is then validated against DPPH spectrophotometry UV-Vis by analyzing antioxidant activity from plant extracts. The results showed no significant differences for the gallic acid equivalent for all samples obtained from the two methods at a confidence level of 97-103%, indicating that the method developed could be relied upon to analyze antioxidant activity from real samples. Finally, the paper-based antioxidant sensor is known to be stable for three days when stored in the refrigerator (2- 4 °C), stable for 2 hours at room temperature (25ºC), and makes paper sensors easy to use for end users.

Abstract:
Background: Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disorder is characterized by defective insulin secretion (β-cell dysfunction), insulin action (insulin resistance) and reduced bio-antioxidant potential. Antioxidants play key role in diabetes by reducing the oxidative stress and alleviating diabetic complications. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) attenuate insulin resistance and produce antioxidant effect. Study Design: In continuation of our goal to develop thiazolidine-2,4-dione analogues that can address both oxidative stress and Type 2 diabetes, the in vitro antioxidant potential of a few synthesized thiazolidinediones (1-61) were evaluated for their DPPH and nitric oxide free radical scavenging assays. Descriptor-based QSAR analysis was utilized to study the structural contribution to the radical scavenging potential. Results: Among all test compounds, the DPPH radical scavenging activity of compound 12 was found to be significant (IC50 22.7±0.43 μM). The compound 11 (IC50: 13.8±0.5 μM) showed superior nitric oxide radical scavenging potential, when compared to ascorbic acid (IC50: 14.8±0.7 µM). Among various developed QSAR models, 16 and 29 models were found to be best for DPPH and nitric oxide radical scavenging activities, respectively. The R2 value 0.745 and 0.890 in the above models are indicative of good correlation between in vitro and in silico antioxidant activity. Conclusion: The QSAR studies revealed the potential contribution of the partition-coefficient, hydrogen bond acceptor and donors and molecular weight towards the antioxidant activity in both the assay models.

Abstract:
The present work focuses on evaluation of the chemical composition and antioxidant activity of the hydro-methanolic extract of Melissa officinalis from Algeria. The liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis allowed the identification of six compounds: caffeic acid, caftaric acid, hydroxyjasmonic acid glucoside, caftaric acid glucoside, rosmarinic acid and sagerinic acid. The in-vitro antioxidant activity of the hydro-methanolic extract was evaluated by using four different methods including: radical scavenging assay (DPPH), scavenging activity (ABTS), cupric reducing antioxidant capacity, and ferric reducing power assay. The extract exhibited a relatively strong antioxidant activity compared to the synthetic antioxidants. The highest radical scavenging activity was registered using DPPH and ABTS methods, IC50= 20.53±2.64 μg/mL and 22.50±0.67 μg/mL, respectively. These results suggest that Melissa officinalis L. could be considered a potential source of natural antioxidants with potential interest in the agrochemical and pharmaceutical industries.
