Evaluation of a natural compound extracted from Dolichandrone atrovirens as a novel antioxidant agent using Caenorhabditis elegans.
The compound methyl cinnamoyl catalpol (DAM-1) was isolated from the methanol extract of Dolichandrone atrovirens. Studies have already reported the antioxidant activity of Dolichandrone atrovirens bark extract, but till date the antioxidant activity of the isolated compound DAM-1, remains unexplore...
