PHYTOCHEMICAL ASSESSMENT, TOTAL PHENOLIC CONTENT, CYTOTOXIC, ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTIDIABETIC ACTIVITIES OF HYOSCYAMUS INSANUS

ABSTRACT Hyoscyamus insanus (family Solanaceae) was traditionally used for treatment of asthma, relieving pain and increasing female body weight. The present project was intended to assess the phytochemicals, total phenolic content, cytotoxic, antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of Hyoscyamus in...

Brine shrimp lethality bioassay, Folin-Ciocalteu phenol reagent, DPPH, ABTSo+, H2O2 and alpha-amylase inhibition assays were employed for the assessment of cytotoxic property, total phenolic content, antioxidant and anti-diabetic potency of methanolic extract and its fractions. Amino acids and protein, carbohydrates, flavonoids and saponins were found in the methanolic extract and aqueous fraction while chloroform fraction exhibited carbohydrates, flavonoids and saponins.
