Goal and objectives of the project

Identify chemical composition, anti-oxidant activity and xanthine oxidase inhibition of 3 species medicinal plants (Jatropha podagrica, Rumex acetosa and Moringa oleifera)

Main results

Theoretical results: Successful evaluation of anti-oxidant activities (DPPH, ABTS and Reducing power) and xanthine oxidase inhibition of the extracts and clean compounds isolated from Jatropha podagrica’s stem bark and underground of Rumex acetosa (L.).
Applied results: The stem bark of Jatropha podagrica, underground of Rumex acetosa (L.) and twigs of Moringa oleifera can be used as remedial treatment for gout diseases and contribute to the pharmaceutical properties of the 3 research subjects.
