Evaluation of antioxidant and nitric oxide inhibitory activities of selected Malaysian medicinal plants

Evaluation of antioxidant and nitric oxide inhibitory activities of selected Malaysian medicinal plants

Methanol extracts of seven Malaysian medicinal plants were screened for antioxidant and nitric oxide inhibitory activities. Antioxidant activity was measured by using FTC, TBA and DPPH free radical scavenging methods and Griess assay was used for the measurement of nitric oxide inhibition in lipopol...
