Polyphenols are plant non-nutrient natural products, or the plant secondary metabolites, found in fruits, vegetables, and seeds that we consume daily. Their intakes from fruit, vegetables, seeds, and nuts are associated with lower risks of chronic and age-related degenerative diseases. Aging is a dynamic and complex biological process involving mul...

... This is in accordance with the opinion of [21] that the higher the concentration of an antibacterial substance, the stronger the antibacterial activity will be. The antiradicalar activity was shown to be dependent on both the species and the extraction process, according to the investigators, avocado was shown to have the highest antioxidant activity [22]. The findings showed that secondary metabolites in P. americana leaves have antioxidant and antibacterial properties [23].The formation of an inhibition zone in the E. coli bacteria is due to the content of antibacterial substances in avocado leaf plants, namely alkaloids, saponins, tannins, and flavonoids that can inhibit or kill the E. coli bacteria alkaloids have an antibacterial function [24] [25]. ...

Avocado leaves ( P. americana ) are a part of plants that can be used as traditional medicines. Avocado leaves contain chemicals such as flavonoids, saponins, tannins and alkaloids which function as pathogenic antibacterial killer. This study aims to describe the antibacterial activity of various concentrations of avocado leaf extract ( P. americana ) on the growth of Escherichia coli . The extract concentrations were 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. This research employed experimental method with post-test group design. Antibacterial activity was measured by the diameter of the clear zone formed. The analysis results, using the Kruskal Walls test with an accuracy level of 0.05, conclude that there are significant differences in the antibacterial power of various concentrations of avocado leaf extract ( P. americana ) against E. coli bacteria. The most effective concentration to inhibit the growth of E. coli bacteria is at concentration 100% with an (inhibition zone) of 6.9 mm including moderate inhibition.
... Several studies indicate that adequate intake of fruits and vegetables prevent these chronic diseases caused by oxidative stress (Zhang & Tsao, 2016;Tabart et al., 2009). Numerous studies have shown that plant polyphenol have good effects on anti-mutagenesis, antiaging, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetes, weight loss and neuroprotection (Braicu et al., 2013;Hano, 2020;Williams & Spencer, 2012;Zaveri, 2006), and have certain therapeutic or preventive effects on some diseases that seriously harm human health, such as hypertension, heart disease, cancer and so on (Hertog et al.,1993;DuPont et al., 2002). These protective effects have been given credit for the antioxidant substances, such as polyphenolic compounds, carotenoids, vitamins C and E. Antioxidants have capability against scavenging reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and prevent oxidative damage to crucial biological macromolecules, such as DNA, lipids, and protein (Singh et al., 2018;Szeto et al., 2004). ...

Abstract The kinetic behavior of the antioxidant activity of aqueous/organic polyphenol extracts from navel orange peel was evaluated using DPPH and FRAP assays to assess their capacity to scavenge DPPH and ferric reducing antioxidant power. The stability of polyphenol extracts, including the influencing factors of temperature, pH, light, and the correlation of total phenolic content and antioxidant activity were also investigated. The kinetic reaction results showed that the antioxidant activity i.e. DPPH radical scavenging capacity and ferric reducing antioxidant power depended on concentration and reaction time. Its stability in aqueous phase and organic phase was influenced by temperature, pH and light in varying degrees. 50 °C was a key temperature point above which the total polyphenol content and antioxidant ability decreased remarkably. The phenolic compounds were not stable at pH 7, but showed a strongest DPPH radical scavenging capacity in both aqueous and organic phases. Acidic conditions seemed to be better for maintaining antioxidant ability of extracts from navel orange peel than alkaline conditions in aqueous and organic phases. Avoiding light kept the extracted phenolic compounds stable. There is a significant correlation between total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. These results provide some basic understanding of extracts from navel orange peel and promote the application of the extracted polyphenol from navel orange peel as antioxidants.
