Products Derived from Leaves Have In Vitro Antioxidant Activity and Protect Larvae against -Induced Injury.

The relevance of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of several diseases (including inflammatory disorders) has traditionally led to the search for new sources of antioxidant compounds. In this work, we report the selection of fractions with high antioxidant action from (BT) leaf extracts. methods (DPPH and ABTS assays; determination of phenolic and flavonoid contents) were used to select products derived from with high antioxidant action.
