      Actividad antioxidante y perfil CG-EM del extracto y fracciones de hojas de Conyza bonariensis L. (Spanish)
    • نبذة مختصرة :
      The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing power (FRAP), and semivolatile compounds of Conyza bonariensis L. leave extract and fractions are discussed. A methanolic crude extract was obtained through maceration, and subsequently, n-hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate fractions were collected using a solvent-solvent partition. Total phenols, flavonoids, and antioxidant activity assays were performed in an ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer, and the results were expressed as Gallic Acid, Quercetin, and Trolox equivalents, respectively. The findings achieved indicate that ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging capacity (90.69±3.16%) at 500 µg mL-1, and reduced the ferric tripyridyltriazine complex (Fe3+-TPTZ) with values between 19.68 and 2,355.37 mg Trolox equivalent (TE) g-1. It was identified 28 phytoconstituents through Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The scavenging activity of ethyl acetate fraction could be correlated mostly to the presence of eugenol, trans-isoeugenol, lucenin-2, methyl salicylate, and syringic acid. This study reveals that the ethyl acetate fraction could be used as a good source of antioxidants for health benefits. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

      El 2,2-difenil-1-picrilhidrazil (DPPH), el poder reductor férrico (FRAP) y los compuestos semivolátiles del extracto y fracciones de Conyza bonariensis L. son discutidos. Se obtuvo un extracto crudo en metanol mediante maceración y posteriormente se recogieron fracciones de n-hexano, cloroformo y acetato de etilo usando partición disolvente-disolvente. Los ensayos de fenoles totales, flavonoides y actividad antioxidante se efectuaron en un espectrofotómetro (UV-Vis) y los resultados se expresaron como equivalentes de Ácido gálico, Quercetina y Trolox, respectivamente. Los resultados indican que la fracción en acetato de etilo mostró la mayor capacidad de eliminación del radical DPPH (90,69±3,16%) a 500 µg mL-1 y redujo el complejo de tripiridiltriazina férrico (Fe3+-TPTZ) con valores entre 19,68 y 2355,37 mg equivalente de Trolox (TE) g-1. Se identificaron 28 fitoconstituyentes a través del análisis de cromatografía de gases-espectrometría de masas (CG-EM). La actividad antioxidante presentada puede correlacionarse principalmente con la presencia de eugenol, trans-isoeugenol, lucenina-2, salicilato de metilo y ácido siríngico detectado. Este estudio muestra que la fracción de acetato de etilo podría ser utilizada como una buena fuente de antioxidantes para el beneficio de la salud humana. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
