Antioxidant activity of piper caninum and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibation by methoxlated flavones
Background: This study investigated on antioxidant activity of Piper caninum and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition by methoxylated flavones. Materials and methods: The present study was carried out to quantify the total phenolic content and free radical scavenging activities of the crude extracts by Folin...

Materials and methods: The present study was carried out to quantify the total phenolic content and free radical scavenging activities of the crude extracts by Folin-Ciocalteu and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging assay respectively. Results: Methanolic extracts of Piper caninum exhibited the highest total phenolic content and free radical scavenging activities.
