1 World Journal of Agricultural Sciences 5 (3): , 29 ISSN IDOSI Publications, 29 Free Radical Scavenging Activities of Zizyphus mauritiana M.A.R. Bhuiyan, M.Z. Hoque and S.J. Hossain Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna-928, Bangladesh Abstract:In the present study, antioxidant activities of the two varieties of fruits of Zizyphus mauritiana (Boroi) were investigated. Ethanolic extracts of fruits powder were characterized by the method described by Hatano et al. [1] in which stable 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical solution were used. In the present investigation, it is found that all of the fruit extracts have remarkable antioxidant activities. The IC 5 s (inhibition concentration 5) of the ethanolic extracts of Zizyphus mauritiana (Local) and Z. mauritiana (Narikeli kul) were 72 and 25 µg/ml respectively. Between these two varieties local variety showed higher antioxidant activities. Therefore, the research clearly indicates local variety of Zizyphus mauritiana is exceptionally advantageous for human health. Key word: Antioxidant activity Fruits Zizyphus mauritiana Ethanolic extracts and IC 5. INTRODUCTION odd, unpaired electron [8]. But when weak bonds split, free radicals are formed [5]. Free radicals are very unstable Antioxidant means "against oxidation." An and react quickly with other compounds, trying to capture antioxidant is any substance that retards or prevents the needed electron to gain stability. Generally, free deterioration, damage or destruction by oxidation [2]. It is radicals attack the nearest stable molecule, "stealing" its a classification of several organic substances, including electron. When the "attacked" molecule loses its electron, vitamins C and E, vitamin A (which is converted from it becomes a free radical itself, beginning a chain reaction beta-carotene), selenium and a group known as the and can be "thousand of events long" [9]. Once the carotenoids [2, 3]. process is started, it can cascade, finally resulting in the A free radical is a compound with one or more disruption of a living cell [4]. unpaired electrons in its outer orbital [4]. Such unpaired Free radicals are formed continuously as normal byelectrons make these species very unstable and products of oxygen metabolism during mitochondrial therefore quite reactive with other molecules due to the oxidative phosphorylation. Thus the mitochondrion is the presence of unpaired electron(s) [5] and they try to pair main source of free radicals [1, 11]. their electron(s) and generate a more stable compound. The role of free radicals in many disease conditions The most dangerous free radicals are the atomic and has been well established. Several biochemical reactions molecular varieties of oxygen which is known as Reactive in our body generate reactive oxygen species and these Oxygen Species (ROS). While ROS are not technically are capable of damaging crucial bio-molecules. If they are free radicals, they are highly reactive with the molecules not effectively scavenged by cellular constituents, they around them [6]. ROS is a collective term, which lead to disease conditions [12, 13] e.g. Cerebrovascular. includes not only the oxygen radicals (Ö 2 and OH) but Disease, Cancer, Arteriosclerosis, Atherosclerosis, Heart also some non-radical derivatives of oxygen, including Disease, Senility, Aging, Behcet's Disease, Crohn's hydrogen peroxide (H2O 2), hypochlorous acid (HOCl) Disease, Cataracts, Sunburn, Ulcers, Osteoporosis, and ozone (O 3) [7].

Molecules consist of one or more atoms of Neurodegenerative Diseases (e.g. Parkinsonism, one or more elements joined by chemical bonds.

Zizyphus mauritiana (Local): From the Fig. 1 and 2, it is found that IC 5 of the fruit extract of Zizyphus mauritiana (Local) is 72µg/ml which indicates the remarkable antioxidant activity of the extract. The antioxidant activity may be due to the presence of phenolic hydroxyl or methoxyl groups, flavone hydroxyl, keto groups, free carboxylic groups and other structural features [19]. Zizyphus mauritiana (Narikeli kul): From the Fig. 3 and 4, it is found that IC 5 of the fruit extract of Zizyphus mauritiana (Narikeli kul) 25µg/ml which indicates that low level of antioxidant activity with compare to local variety. The antioxidant activity DISCUSSION In the present study, the extracts were prepared using 99.99% ethanol and 6. and 5.5 gm final extracts were collected from 5 gm fruit powder of each two varieties of Zizyphus mauritiana. These results indicate that the extraction with ethanol gives a considerable amount of extracts. The in vitro antioxidant activities of the prepared fruit extracts were investigated by DPPH free radical scavenging assay. The model system of scavenging DPPH free radicals is a simple and acceptable method to evaluate the antioxidative activity of antioxidants. It is accepted that the DPPH free radical scavenging by 32
