Cinnamon (
Cinnamomum zeylanicum) EO was achieved by steam distillation in a Clevenger-type apparatus (MA480 Marconi) and its density was evaluated by weighing a volume of 1 mL (FONSECA; LIBRAND, 2008).
In this study we have synthesized the silver and gold nanoparticles by using the bark of
Cinnamomum zeylanicum (C.
Among five Cinnamomum species studied,
Cinnamomum zeylanicum leaves demonstrated highest DPPH (1,1 -diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, total antioxidant activity and reducing power, while Cinnamomum tamala leaves exhibited highest superoxide anion scavenging activity (Prasad, 2009).
