The In-vitro Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Action of Aloe Vera, Chamomile, and Propolis: A Formulation Analysis
Keywords:
Antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory, Propolis, Chamomile, Aloe vera, polyphenolsAbstract
Aims & Background: The aim of this research is to evaluate the Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory activity of Aloe vera, Chamomile, and Propolis formulation. Plant extracts have been widely used for their therapeutic properties for many centuries. Polyphenols are the primary compounds present in the Aloe vera, Chamomile, and Propolis which provides anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activity and are responsible for offering immunity against free radical tissue damage and are crucial in preventing various chronic diseases such as inflammation, anaemia, cardiovascular disorders and aging.
Materials and Methods:
The aqueous Aloe vera, Chamomile, and Propolis formulation was prepared. The antioxidant capacity of the formulation was determined using 2 different assays such as DPPH and H2O2 assays. The anti-inflammatory capability of the formulation was assessed using two assays: BSA and EA assays.
