https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11882 0.05) as compared with other solvent extracts. The free radical scavenging activity of the extracts was high even at lower concentrations (0.025 mg/ml) except in DPPH and lipid peroxidation. The ferric reducing potential of the extracts was concentration dependent and significantly different from Vitamin C and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) that were used as standard drugs. The present study showed a high level of scavenging activity of the leaf extracts of Aloe ferox in all the solvent extracts. Both ethanol and methanolic extract showed potent antioxidant activities than acetone and aqueous extracts. The study indicated that the leaf extracts of Aloe ferox might be a valuable source of natural antioxidant for both medicine and food industries. A. ferox leaf consists of the gel, latex and mesophyll layer; however, the main active constituents of the latex and the leaf exudate of Aloe ferox are anthraquinones which are believed to be responsible for the laxative property. The laxative compound in Aloe ferox leaf extract was isolated and characterized by extracting the plant material in methanol and extract suspended in distilled water. Partitioning was done with n-hexane, ethyl acetate and butanol respectively and was co-spotted with the over-the-counter (OTC) laxative drugs. This led to the successive column chromatography and thin layer chromatography (TLC) of the most active ethyl acetate fraction on silica gel with benzene/ethanol/ammonia hydroxide (BEA: 90:10:1), ethyl acetate/methanol/water (EMW: 40:5.4:5) and chloroform/ethyl acetate/formic acid (CEF: 50:40:10) as the mobile phase. The successive chromatograph and TLC afforded two compounds of Rf 0.420 (blue) and 0.831 (yellow) with the over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. These compounds were not totally elucidated due to their small quantity and instability. However, hydroxyl (OH) and carboxyl groups (COOH) was established as common to the extracted compounds, which might be responsible for the biological activity recorded for the plant extract.]]> Thu 13 May 2021 04:36:56 SAST ]]> Stewardship as an educational process of social learning and change: two case studies conducted in the Western Cape https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:1772 Thu 13 May 2021 04:34:22 SAST ]]> Comparative structural bioinformatics analysis of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens chemotaxis proteins within Bacillus subtilis group https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:35521 Thu 13 May 2021 04:14:34 SAST ]]> Investigating the utilisation of enterprise risk management at East London industrial development zone https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:8773 Thu 13 May 2021 03:57:38 SAST ]]> Study of protein complexes via homology modeling, applied to cysteine proteases and their protein inhibitors: https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38707 Thu 13 May 2021 03:55:27 SAST ]]> The impact of the implementation of E-HRM on the human resource management function https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:8938 Thu 13 May 2021 03:43:54 SAST ]]> Assessing BEE policy's viability in advancing establishment and survival of SMMes in South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:20591 Thu 13 May 2021 03:41:53 SAST ]]> A comparative analysis of the development of performers' rights in the United Kingdom and South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10215 Thu 13 May 2021 03:36:06 SAST ]]> Experiences of casualty doctors regarding their role in the management of gender-based violence victims at the intermediate hospitals, Oshakati https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10029 Thu 13 May 2021 03:14:57 SAST ]]> Post-impoundment population dynamics of non-native common carp Cyprinus Carpio in relation to two large native cyprinids in Lake Gariep, South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5311 Thu 13 May 2021 02:41:00 SAST ]]> Vocabulary development in a grade 7 class using dictionary skills: an action research project https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:1822 Thu 13 May 2021 02:37:56 SAST ]]> A forecasting model for photovoltaic module energy production https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10563 Thu 13 May 2021 02:27:18 SAST ]]> A participatory communication approach of rural cattle project: a case study of Nguni cattle project in the Eastern Cape, South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11370 Thu 13 May 2021 02:25:55 SAST ]]> 'n Analise van die gebruik van satire in enkele tekste van Marlene van Niekerk https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:8477 Thu 13 May 2021 01:47:18 SAST ]]> A case study of the strategic leadership displayed by Kevin Hedderwick at Famous Brands between 2004-2009 https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:772 Thu 13 May 2021 01:37:34 SAST ]]> Towards community environmental education using current institutional resources, GIS and remote sensing, and local knowledge: a case of the Nandi Hills and Nandi Forests, Western Kenya https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:9568 Thu 13 May 2021 01:35:46 SAST ]]> Perceptions and constructions of cholera in the Eastern Province Herald and Daily Dispatch, 1980-2003 https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:2566 Thu 13 May 2021 01:31:21 SAST ]]> Rhodes University Library Annual Report 2010: Library Director’s Review https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:7943 Thu 13 May 2021 01:29:02 SAST ]]> Incidence and mechanism of injuries occurring over season among premier and president league hockey teams of the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10091 Thu 13 May 2021 01:06:29 SAST ]]> Quantifying crop damage by Grey crowned crane balearica regulorum regulorum and evaluating changes in crane distribution in the North Eastern Cape, South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5749 Thu 13 May 2021 00:56:00 SAST ]]> South Africa’s Abortion Values Clarification Workshops: an opportunity to deepen democratic communication missed https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38021 Thu 13 May 2021 00:32:40 SAST ]]> Development of MgZnO-grown MOCVD for UV Photonic applications https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10537 580 ˚C) growth temperatures reduce the Mg incorporation.
