Ethanolic maceration is more effective than aqueous infusion for extracting catechin equivalents and achieving higher antioxidant activity from cocoa beans.
This study investigates the phytochemical composition and antioxidant activity of fruit extracts from four Algerian varieties of Ficus carica L., including figs and Breba figs (Bakor). Samples were collected from two bioclimatic regions: Lahmar (desert) and El Bordj (semi-arid). Methanolic, aqueous decoction, and infus...

Oxidative stress results from an imbalance between reactive species and antioxidant defenses. Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) calyces contain phenolic and flavonoid compounds that may contribute to radical-scavenging activity. This study evaluated the phytochemical profile and DPPH radical-scavenging activity of a 70%...
Findings suggested that C. pungens represents a promising source of bioactive phytochemicals deserving further nutritional investigation, and further quantitative phytochemical analysis, together with bioavailability, safety, and in vivo efficacy studies, is warranted.

Antioxidants, which can be obtained from natural sources like plants, play a crucial role in combating free radicals that are directly connected to inducing oxidative stress in the body. The present study assessed the antioxidant potential, along with the phenolics and flavonoids estimation, of the methanol extract of...

Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit, prevent, and reduce free radical activity caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby protecting cells from oxidative damage. Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is recognized as a valuable source of antioxidants, largely due to the phenolic and flavonoid compounds concentrate...
