Biological activity studies of some rubiaceous plants (subfamily rubioideae) and phytochemical investigation of hedyotis philippinensis / Emi Norzehan Mohamad Mahbob

In this study, the biological activities of 13 Rubioideae plants were investigated with the aim of iscovering its bioactive constituents. The assays employed were ferric thiocyanate (FTC), thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods for antioxidant potential as well as...
