IC50 values of elastase inhibition activity of the methanol extract and its fractions from the bark of M. concanensis.
Samples | IC50 (μgmL−1) |
| |
EGCG | 39.32 ± 1.41 |
Methanol | 88.53 ± 1.95∗∗ |
Hexane | 78.11 ± 1.72∗ |
Chloroform | 2.957 ± 1.23∗∗ |
Ethyl acetate | 176.7 ± 2.20∗∗∗ |
Data expressed as mean ± SD, n = 3. Data represent significant differences at p value < 0.05, among different solvent fractions compared with the positive control (EGCG), using one-way ANOVA, followed by Dunnett's test.
