TL;DR: In this paper, several honey samples (27) from Burkina Faso were analyzed to determine their total phenolic, flavonoid and proline contents as well as their radical scavenging activity.

TL;DR: The therapeutic uses of hive-derived products by local people in four zones from the central part of Burkina Faso are described, with honey and honeybee larvae used for treatment of various gastrointestinal disorders, respiratory ailments, fatigue, vertigo, ophthalmic disorders, toothache, measles, wounds, burns, chest pains and postnatal disorders.

TL;DR: Elemol, 1,8-cineole, camphor and para-cymene can be considered as the principal antimicrobial components of these oils, and no antioxidant capacity comparable to that of α-tocopherol was demonstrated from either oil.
64 citations
TL;DR: In this article, the contribution of native Acacia species of the Sudano-Sahelian zone to improving organic carbon and nitrogen level in Cambisols and Vertisols with specific focus on variation in microbial biomass (Cmic), soil basal respiration (Cresp) and metabolic quotient (qCO2).

TL;DR: The highest total phenolic content was observed in mulberry (1515.9 ± 5.7 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/100 g fresh matter (FM) among four selected fruit species as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new antioxidant activity index (AAI) using the DPPH method, which was calculated as follows: AAI = final D PPH concentration (μg ǫ −1 )/IC 50(μg −1 ), and no significant difference in the AAI for each compound tested was observed, indicating that AAI found was appropriate to compare the antioxidant strength of plant extracts and pure compounds.

TL;DR: The results of the study showed that total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and color parameters differ widely among different honey types as discussed by the authors, and the relationship between the parameters analysed were found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05).
Abstract: Honey samples from the seven most common honey types in Slovenia were screened for total phenolic content by the modified Folin– Ciocalteu method, for potential antioxidant activity using the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay and by the 1,1-diphenyl-2picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method for antiradical activity. In addition the colour characteristics of honey samples were analysed. The results of the study showed that total phenolic content, antioxidant activity and colour parameters differ widely among different honey types. Phenolic content expressed as gallic acid equivalent ranged from 44.8 mg/kg in acacia honey to 241.4 mg/kg in fir honey. Antioxidant activity was the lowest in the brightest acacia and lime honeys and the highest in darker honeys, namely fir, spruce and forest. The colour of the Slovenian honeys, analysed in this study was very variable and ranged from pale yellow to dark brown. Correlations between the parameters analysed were found to be statistically significant (p < 0.05). 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
