Safety evaluation of proanthocyanidin-rich extract from grape seeds
TL;DR: In this paper, the grape seed extract (GSE) was examined for acute and sub-chronic oral toxicity using Fischer 344 rats and for mutagenic potential by the reverse mutation test using Salmonella typhimurium, the chromosomal aberration test using CHL cells, and the micronucleus test using ddY mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free Radical Scavenging Activity and Antiulcer Activity of Garcinol from Garcinia indica Fruit Rind
TL;DR: Orally administered garcinol prevented acute ulceration in rats induced by indomethacin and water immersion stress caused by radical formation and suggestedGarcinol might have potential as a free radical scavenger and clinical application as an antiulcer drug.
