Total Alkaloid Content, Total Phenolic Content, In Vitro Antioxidant Activity, and Preliminary Antiglycemic Potential of the Methanol Extract from Mozambican Wild Fruits of Vangueria infausta

This study investigated the antioxidant activity and alpha-amylase inhibitory potential of the methanolic extract from Vangueria infausta fruits with the aim of exploring its therapeutic and nutritional applications. Bioactive compounds such as total phenolics (TPC) and total alkaloids (TAC) were analyzed. Anti- oxidant activity was assessed using the DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, Ferrozine, Phos- phomolybdate, and Folin-Ciocalteu methods, while alpha-amylase inhibitory activity was determined using the...
