Resumo: | The consumption of medicinal plants has shown considerable growth in several countries. Annona sylvatica, commonly known as araticum-do-mato, is a fruit used in folk medicine to lower blood pressure. The objective of this work was to investigate the phytochemical profile and evaluate the antioxidant activity of A. sylvatica leaf extracts and fractions. The ethanol extract was obtained by maceration and submitted to liquid-liquid partition to obtain fractions in hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate. The main classes of secondary metabolites were detected by phytochemical screening, the content of total phenols (TF) and the antioxidant activity were quantified by the Folin-Dennis tests and the DPPH radical scavenging activity assay, respectively. Using the Pearson coefficient, the total phenol contents were correlated with the EC50 values observed in the DPPH assay. Phytochemical screening detected the presence of flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids and triterpenes/steroids. The AcOET fraction showed the highest content of total phenols and the highest activity in the DPPH assay, with values of 84.0±4.4 mg GAE. g-1 and EC50 9.28 µg. mL-1, respectively. There was a strong negative correlation between TF content and EC50 values, suggesting that part of the antioxidant activity observed is related to TF content. The results suggest that araticum-do-mato is an important source of natural antioxidants. |

Annona sylvatica, comúnmente conocida como araticum-do-mato, es una fruta que se usa en la medicina popular para reducir la presión arterial. El objetivo de este trabajo fue investigar el perfil fitoquímico y evaluar la actividad antioxidante de extractos y fracciones de hojas de A. sylvatica. El extracto etanólico se obtuvo por maceración y se sometió a reparto líquido-líquido para obtener fracciones en hexano, cloroformo y acetato de etilo. Las principales clases de metabolitos secundarios se detectaron mediante cribado fitoquímico, el contenido de fenoles totales (TF) y la actividad antioxidante se cuantificaron mediante las pruebas de Folin-Dennis y el ensayo de actividad captadora de radicales DPPH, respectivamente. Usando el coeficiente de Pearson, el contenido total de fenol se correlacionó con los valores de CE50 observados en el ensayo DPPH. El cribado fitoquímico detectó la presencia de flavonoides, saponinas, alcaloides y triterpenos/esteroides. La fracción AcOET mostró el mayor contenido de fenoles totales y la mayor actividad en el ensayo DPPH, con valores de 84,0 ± 4,4 mg EAG. g-1 y EC50 9,28 µg. mL-1, respectivamente. Se observó una fuerte correlación negativa entre el contenido de TF y los valores de CE50, lo que sugiere que parte de la actividad antioxidante observada está relacionada con el contenido de TF. Los resultados sugieren que araticum-do-mato es una fuente importante de antioxidantes naturales.O consumo de plantas medicinais tem apresentado um crescimento considerável em diversos países.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi investigar o perfil fitoquímico e avaliar a atividade antioxidante de extrato e frações de folhas de A. sylvatica. O extrato em etanol foi obtido por maceração e submetido à partição líquido-líquido para obtenção das frações em hexano, clorofórmio e acetato de etila. As principais classes de metabólitos secundários foram detectadas por prospecção fitoquímica, o teor de fenóis totais (FT) e a atividade antioxidante foram quantificados pelos testes de Folin-Dennis e ensaio da atividade sequestradora do radical DPPH, respectivamente. Através do coeficiente de Pearson, os teores de fenóis totais foram correlacionados com os valores de CE50 observados no ensaio do DPPH. A prospecção fitoquímica detectou a presença de flavonoides, saponinas, alcaloides e triterpenos/esteroides. A fração AcOET apresentou o maior teor de fenóis totais e maior atividade no ensaio do DPPH, com os valores de 84,0±4,4 mg EAG. g-1 e CE50 9,28 µg. mL-1, respectivamente.
