Abstract

This study was designed to investigate and compare the aqueous (AQTB) and ethanolic (ETTB) extracts of Tapinanthus bangwensis leaves on the phenolic content antioxidant activity and inhibitory effect on Fe2- induced lipid peroxidation in pancreas (in vitro). Antioxidant properties (Inhibition of Fe2-induced lipid peroxidation in rat pancreas total phenol and total flavonoid contents ferric reducing antioxidant property nitric oxide radical scavenging ability using in vitro model were evaluated. The result revealed that the ETTB had higher total phenol and total flavonoid contents than AQTB. Furthermore ETTB exhibited strong antioxidant properties as observed by its nitric oxide (NO) radical scavenging ability and ferric reducing antioxidant property than AQTB.The result also revealed that incubation of rat pancreas in the presence of 25 M Fe2 caused a significant increase (p 0.05) in malondiadehyde (MDA) contents of the rat pancreas (156.9) when compared with the basal pancreas homogenate (100). However AQTB showed higher inhibitory effects on pancreatic MDA produced in a dose-dependent pattern (0 - 0.63 mg/mL) than the ETTB. The antioxidant activity and inhibitory effect of both extracts against lipid peroxidation could be attributed to the phenolic phytochemicals present in the extracts. It could therefore be concluded that both extracts protect the pancreas against oxidative damage but aqueous extract exhibited the better protection.
