Overview

This integrative study investigates the antioxidant and anti-diabetic effects of nephrolepis brownii, highlighting its potential as a natural therapy.

Key Points

  • Nephrolepis brownii leaf extract exhibits significant antioxidant potential with 70% inhibition in DPPH assay.
  • Antioxidant activity is comparable to ascorbic acid, indicating strong therapeutic relevance.
  • Extract shows concentration-dependent inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase with IC50 values of 67.70 and 76.37 μg/mL respectively.
  • Findings suggest nephrolepis brownii could serve as a natural source for antioxidant and anti-diabetic treatments.
