Popis: | Cibotium barometz (L.) J.Sm. (Cibotiaceae) is a tropical tree fern and its rhizome is used in many traditional medicines. The hairs covering the rhizome are usually removed before use. This study aims to evaluate the rhizome hairs for phytochemical content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, as well as metabolites profiling of the ethyl acetate extract using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The rhizome hairs were extracted sequentially using hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, ethanol, methanol, and water. Qualitative analysis indicates that the extracts contained anthraquinones, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, phytosterols, and triterpenoids. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the extracts were 0.37−266 mg gallic acid equivalents/g sample and 4.57−113 mg quercetin equivalents/g sample, respectively. The ethyl acetate extract had the strongest antioxidant activity with the highest ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) value (35.1 mmol FeSO4 equivalents/mg sample), the highest oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) value (4.91 mmol Trolox equivalents/mg sample), and the lowest half-maximum effective concentration (6.50 μg/mL) for DPPH radical scavenging activity. A high positive correlation (P |
