Chemical characteristics and targeted encapsulated Cordia myxa fruits extracts nanoparticles for antioxidant and cytotoxicity potentials.

ABSTRACT: A promising Cordia myxa fruit (CMF) extract targets an additional incorporation in functional foods. It retains appropriate health welfares owing to its antioxidant properties with limited incorporation in food matrices due its hydrophobicity. Therefore, CMF extract micro- and nanocapsulation was performed to protect and facilitate consistency of produced hydrophobic foods matrices. Furthermore, to determine its phytochemicals, antioxidant, and cytotoxic effects by applying analytical HPLC, FRAP and SRB assay, respectively. HPLC analysis of the tested extracts revealed the presence of, 25.59 ± 1.78 mg catechin/g, 69.68 ± 4.20 mg quercetin/g, and 112.72 ± 8.38 mg gallic acid/g extract. The CMF extract displayed a potent DPPH radicals' scavenger and FRAP high reduction capability in a
