Premna trichostoma Miq. (Lamiaceae) mainly distribute in Asia including Thailand. Folk healers use this plant to treat fever as a juice splash and bathe. The aims of this study are to evaluate the quantity of active constituents and antioxidant activity of P. trichostoma leaf extract. Total phenolic compounds were determined using Folin-Ciocalteu method. Total flavonoid contents were determined by Aluminum chloride method. The amount of apigenin and kaempferol contents were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In addition the antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH and ABTS assay. The results showed that total phenolic contents total flavonoid contents and the amount of apigenin and kaempferol of P. trichostoma leaf extract was 46.45±15.30 mg GAE/g extract 25.48±2.02 mg CE/g extract 11.16±0.04 and 4.54±0.08 µg/g extract respectively. The IC50 values from the DPPH and ABTS assay was 117.50±1.22 and 36.14±1.53 µg/ml respectively. This study shows the antioxidant properties and active constituents of P. trichostoma leaf extract which indicates the potentials for further development of this plant

The purpose of this research was to analyze carotenoid content anthocyanin content phenolic compound content and the antioxidant activity by 2 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl scavenging capacity (DPPH) and 1 10-Phenantroline (Phen). In the 3 varieties of corn milk which were the Queen Ruby Siam strain (Purple corn milk) (White corn milk) Sweet strain (Yellow corn milk). It was found that the samples of 3 types of corn milk have total carotenoid content were 0.45+0.00 0.29+0.02 and 0.68+0.00mg/l respectively. Anthocyanin content measured by pH-differential method were 2.86+0.01 1.71+0.03 and 0.80+0.01 mg/l respectively. The total amount of phenolic compounds were 12.00+0.02 10.05+0.00 and 8.62+0.09 mg/l respectively. The ability to resist free radicals by DPPH method were equal to 96.50+0.10 47.10+0.01 and 60.91+0.08 respectively. The antioxidant activity using Phen method were 133.98+0.76 111.17+0.48 and 86.61+0.98 mg/l respectively.

The study used the fruit of Ficus hispida Linn to separation by maceration and sequential extraction method with hexane ethyl acetate and methanol to crude extracts. Crude extracts were assessed for their antioxidant activities tested using DPPH radical scavenging assay total phenolic contents tested using the Folin–Ciocalteu method The results showed that 1. Phytochemical examination of the extracts of F. hispida alkaloids condensed tannins phenolic compounds triterpenes steroids cardiac glycosides anthraquinones 2. Hexane Ethylacetate and Methanol extracts have the ability to reduce the amount of DPPH. The EC50 values were> 1000 285 and 30 g/ml respectively. 3. Hexane Ethylacetate and Methanol extracts contained phenolic compounds values of 3.09 55.25 and 99.59 mg GAE/g dw respectively.

This research aims to study the appropriate drying condition and extraction solvent for extracting protein and antioxidants from the porcine placenta. Three levels of drying temperature were used in this study which were 50 60 and 70ºC the result shows that the best drying condition for porcine placenta was 70ºC for 4 hours because this condition provided the least drying time and the lowest moisture content of porcine placenta (3.80±3.36% dry basis). After that the fresh and dried porcine placenta were extracted by using three solvents which were deionized water (DI) phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and hexane. The efficiency of extraction was investigated by measuring the crude protein and antioxidant of the porcine placenta. It was found that there was no protein and antioxidant in fresh and dried porcine placenta extracted by hexane. However the protein was found as 0.05±0.01 and 0.04±0.01 mg of bovine serum albumin/100 mg fresh for fresh porcine placenta and 0.12±0.030 and 0.07±0.016 mg of bovine serum albumin/100 mg fresh for dried porcine placenta extracted by DI and PBS respectively. In additional the antioxidant was found as 1.13±0.03 and 1.29±0.04 mg of trolox/100 mg fresh for fresh porcine placenta and 3.37±0.02 and 3.59±0.01 mg of trolox/100 mg fresh for dried porcine placenta extracted using DI and PBS respectively.

In this study the mao berry marc which was divided into 5 varieties including Fapratan Phusung Phupanthong Yaykhamta and mixed variety were dried in tray dryer at low temperature (50?C) and high temperature (60?C) for 72 hr. All samples were investigated their properties including yield color water activity pH tannin total phenolic total anthocyanin antioxidant activity in term of %DPPH activity total microorganism and yeast & mold content. It was found that the yield color in term of ?h aw tannin and anthocyanin content of low temperature drying sample showed the highest value. However the total microorganism and yeast & mold content of high temperature drying samples were not present in all samples which less than those recommended in the Thai Community Product Standard (dried fruits: 136/2003). Eight trained-panelists were used for Hedonic scale (1-9 point) sensory evaluation including clarity color odor taste and overall linking of high temperature drying samples were similar in five varieties (P>0.05).
