Abstract
Isoflavonic compounds and antioxidants from the leaves of Feijoa sellowiana Berg grown in Casablanca (Morocco) was analyzed by a sensitive and reliable ultra-fast liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UFLC-MS/MS) method. The identified compounds were rich in phenolics compounds, thus fifteen constituents were found.
Highlights
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) were produced as a result of oxidative metabolism in the body. They were annihilated by antioxidants, but in case of inversion of the balance in the favor of ROS, they become harmful to organic molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids and lipids
Analysis of the leaf extract of F. sellowiana revealed that it was rich in flavonoids and antioxidants such as cathequin, daidzin, quercetin, ellagic acid, and gallic acid, salicylic acid, caffeic acid
The chromatographic profiles and composition of the phenolic compounds identified from the leaf extract were shown in figure 1 and table 1
Summary
Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) were produced as a result of oxidative metabolism in the body They were annihilated by antioxidants, but in case of inversion of the balance in the favor of ROS, they become harmful to organic molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. A study for importance intake of vegetable, fruit and legumes was associated with reduced risk of mortality in European diabetic population and decreased cardiovascular diseases [4]. Faced with this recrudescence of diseases, many people were to look for products of natural origin.
