Abstract
To evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of terpenoid rich fraction from the leaves of Sphaeranthus indicus. In this framework, the in vitro antioxidant activity was demonstrated by ABTS radicals, lipid peroxidation, nitric oxide scavenging activities and anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated first by studying inhibiting the denaturation of albumin and inhibition of lipoxygenase activities. Total phenolic and flavonoid content were found respectively (63.21 ± 1.78) mg gallic acid equivalent/g, and (52.34 ± 0.89) mg quercetin equivalent/g. The terpenoid rich fraction displayed significant scavenging activity of some radicals such as ABTS EC50 at. Terpenoid rich fraction rich fraction from the leaves of S. indicus showed in vitro anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting albumin denaturation and inhibition of lipoxygenase. Our results show that terpenoid rich fraction from the leaves of S. indicus has good antioxidant activity and interesting anti-inflammatory properties. Terpenoid rich fraction from the leaves of S. indicus extract can be used to prevent oxidative and inflammatory processes.
