Abstract:
Medicinal plants are an important source of natural compounds used in the development of drugs to treat infectious diseases. The plant Mitracarpus scaber has traditionally been used to treat various ailments, including skin disorders. In this study, GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) analysis was used to identify eighteen bioactive components in the methanolic extract of Mitracarpus scaber whole plants. To assess the druggability and skin pharmacokinetics of these phytocompounds, in silico screening was performed using online programs such as Swiss ADME, pkCSM, ADMETLab 2.0, and Stop

The objective of this investigation was to determine the toxicity, anti-anemia activity, betanin content, flavonoid content, and antioxidant capacity of Beta vulgaris L. Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was implemented to optimize the extraction procedure. The total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) of the extracts were determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu colorimetric and aluminum chloride methods, respectively. Furthermore, the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method was employed to ascertain antioxidant capacity, whereas thin-layer chromatography was used to id

Flavone analogs are natural compounds of the flavonoid class that have a wide range of biological activities. The present study aimed to predict, with the aid of in silico methodologies, the oral bioavailability and pharmacokinetic and toxicological analyzes for three flavone analogues (apigenin, chrysin and luteonlin). The study revealed that the analogues have good oral availability, favorable pharmacokinetic and toxicological parameters.
