Nazmul Hasan Zilani,Tamanna Sultana,S. M. Asabur Rahman,Anisuzzman,Amirul Islam,Jamil A. Shilpi,Golam Hossain +6 more
TL;DR: Along with other compounds ellagic acid and β-sitosterol present in the extract may be responsible for its antioxidant as well as antihyperglycemic activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antioxidant Potential of Grass Pea Seeds from European Countries
TL;DR: Two derivatives of p-coumaric acid were the dominant phenolic compounds of the Derek cultivar of grass pea and the total phenolics content of grasspea extract was correlated with the results of the ABTS and FRAP assays.

Cytogenomics and Mutagenomics in Plant Functional Biology and Breeding
TL;DR: The functionality of mutagenomics is greatly enhanced due to integration of classical mutagenesis with modern “omics” technology through the development of desirable diploid mutants, recombinant inbred lines, and aneuploid and polyploid lines as effective cytogenetic tools, utilizable in genome mapping and analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth Responses and Leaf Antioxidant Metabolism of Grass Pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) Genotypes under Salinity Stress
TL;DR: A time-bound measurement at 15, 30 and 60 DAC revealed significant reduction in plant dry matter production, orchestrated through abnormally low capacity of leaf photosynthesis accompanied by low K.

Analysis of total phenols and other oxidation substrates and antioxidants by means of folin-ciocalteu reagent
TL;DR: Aggregate analysis of this type is an important supplement to and often more informative than reems of data difficult to summarize from various techniques, such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) that separate a large number of individual compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
The determination of flavonoid contents in mulberry and their scavenging effects on superoxide radicals
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that mulberry leaves contain at least four flavonoids, two of which are rutin and quercetin, and that the scavenging effects of most mulberry extracts were greater than those of rutins (52.0%) at a concentration of 5μg ml −1.

Ferric reducing/antioxidant power assay: direct measure of total antioxidant activity of biological fluids and modified version for simultaneous measurement of total antioxidant power and ascorbic acid concentration
Iris F.F. Benzie,J. J. Strain +1 more
TL;DR: The ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) assay is a recently developed, direct test of “total antioxidant power” that facilitates experimental and clinical studies investigating the relationship among antioxidant status, dietary habits, and risk of disease.

The antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities of processed cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) seed extracts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the antioxidative properties and total phenolic contents of two varieties of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and examined the raw, dry heated and hydrothermal treated samples were extracted with 70% acetone and the extracts were freeze-dried.

Effect of soaking, boiling, and steaming on total phenolic contentand antioxidant activities of cool season food legumes
Baojun Xu,Sam K.C. Chang +1 more
TL;DR: Steam processing exhibited several advantages in retaining the integrity of the legume appearance and texture of the cooked product, shortening process time, and greater retention of antioxidant components and activities.
