Computational, chemical profile, in vitro antioxidant, hypoglycaemic, and anti-inflammatory activity of hexane extract of some selected dark green vegetables

This study investigated the phytochemical composition and in vitro antioxidant, hypoglycaemic and anti-inflammatory potential of n-hexane extracts of Vernonia amygdalina (VA) , Telfairia occidentalis (TO), Gongronema latifolium (GL) and Ocimum gratissimum (OG). The extracts demonstrated a concentrat...

Description
Summary:This study investigated the phytochemical composition and in vitro antioxidant, hypoglycaemic and anti-inflammatory potential of n-hexane extracts of Vernonia amygdalina (VA) , Telfairia occidentalis (TO), Gongronema latifolium (GL) and Ocimum gratissimum (OG). The extracts demonstrated a concentration-dependent increase in antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of TO was significantly ( p
