The antioxidant property and bioactive compounds' activity of two wheat varieties have been investigated in this research. To conduct this experiment, leaves and seeds of wheat were extracted by methanol and ethanol. For DPPH free radical scavenging assay, plant extracts showed 50 % scavenging ability compared with standard antioxidant (BHT). The results revealed that the Kheri leaf extracts had 2.17, 5.03, 11.74, 25.44, 39.64, 49.41 and 54.34% with various doses which clearly shows that it is capable of scavenging the 50 % DPPH. The Kheri seed extracts showed IC50 value of 55μg/mL for scavenging the 50 % DPPH. On the other hand, the Pavon 76 leaf and seed extract showed an IC50 value of 80 μg/mL and 90μg/mL at different concentrations. The ethanol extracts of the two tested genotypes had an abstemiously-high antioxidant effect though this effect was not approximate to the synthetic antioxidant (BHT). Moreover, the extracts of various solvents were tested to identify the nature of phytochemical constituents which exposed several bioactive compounds such as alkaloid, flavonoids, phenols, saponins, amino acids and carbohydrates present in trace amount in the case of whole-plant extracts. The antioxidant property in whole grains may be responsible for the health benefits of the whole-grain consumption of wheat. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
