Objective: To optimize the extraction and purification techniques of total flavonoids in Fissistigma oldhamii. The scavenging activity to DPPH of the total flavonoids and the extraction were studied in vitro.
Methods: By orthogonal design, we investigated the effects of concentration of ethanol, temperature, ratio of solid to liquid and time of extraction on the total flavonoids extraction rate. The total flavonoids was separated and purified by AB-8 macroporous resin absorption.
Results: The optimum extraction condition was that at extraction time of 3 h, concentration of alcohol 90%, solid/liquid ratio of 1:10 and temperature of 70 degrees C. The content of total flavonoids in the refined product was above 55%. The GFM-2 fraction showed antioxidant capacity in vitro.
Conclusion: The optimum extraction condition and purification experiment are very useful for further development of industrial process. Meantime, the result may be helpful for further development of Fissistigma oldhamii as health protection foods.

The mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV, Begomovirus vignaradiataindiaense) causes Yellow Mosaic Disease (YMD) in mungbean (Vigna radiata L.). The biochemical assays including total phenol content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), ascorbic acid (AA), DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), and FRAP (Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power) were used to study the mungbean plants defense response to MYMIV infection.

Black oilseed crops are rich in diverse phenolic compounds and have excellent antioxidant activities, as reported in traditional Chinese medicine. Testa (seed coat) and peeled seeds (cotyledon, embryo, and other structures) are the seed's crucial components, contributing to the variation in phytonutrient, phenol content, bioactive component, and protective and pharmacological effects. However, comprehensive and comparative information on total phenol, flavonoid, antioxidant, and metabolic profiles in black seed testa and peeled sesame, soybean, peanut, and rapeseed seeds is rare.

Background: The Protozoan pathogen Eimeria is a significant issue in poultry production. Scientists are concerned with finding alternative strategies due to the spread of resistance against the commonly employed coccidiostats. This study examined how well myrrh extract (MyE) protected domesticated pigeons from an experimental Eimeria labbeana-like infection.
