Abstract
The resolve of this study is to examine the effect of Delonix elata herbal decoction on antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Total antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of herbal decoction from the leaves of Delonix elata were recorded and also phytochemical analysis was implemented. Moreover, inhibitory effects of inflammation related enzyme lipoxygenase and albumin denaturation were assessed and antioxidant 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS), inhibition of lipid peroxidation and nitrite scavenging activities in a dose-dependent manner. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents of herbal decoction were 61.23± 2.67 mg GAE/g and 43.21 ± 0.23 mg QE/g, respectively. Treatment of 100 μg/mL herbal decoction significantly reduced lipoxygenase (76.32%) and albumin denaturation (84.21%). The result of antioxidant activity ABTS radical (70.18%), inhibition of lipid peroxidation (77.38%) and nitrite scavenging (64.32%) activities dose-dependent manner. These results reinforce the fact that the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of herbal decoction. Thus, herbal decoction from the leaves of Delonix elata may be utilized as a bioactive ingredient in functional foods.
