Antioxidant and Antibacterial Activity of Cinnamaldehyde Derivative

Abstract

Abstract: This study reports the antibacterial and antioxidant properties of cinnamaldehyde derivatives. DPPH, Superoxide Anion Radical, Hydroxy Radical, and Nitric Oxide Radical Scavenging Activities were used to assess the test compound's antioxidant capacity. The well diffusion method was used to examine the antibacterial efficiency against both Gram positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. Both Gram positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains responded favourably to the antibacterial effects of cinnamaldehyde derivatives. The study revealed the test substance possesses strong antibacterial and radical scavenging abilities.
