Objective:To screen the antioxidant,cholinesterase and tyrosinase enzymatic inhibition activities of the leaves and heartwood of Calophyllum symingtonianum(***),and the bark of Calophyllum depressinervosum(***).Methods:Samples of leaves and heartwood of *** and bark of *** were tested for their total phenolic content and in vitro antioxidant assay by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging and β-carotene *** inhibition by Ellman’s method and tyrosinase inhibition using L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine as a substrate were also ***:All methanol extracts were found to exhibit strong 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging *** from the heartwood of *** gave a low IC50(5.17±0.04)μg/mL followed by bark of ***[(7.30±0.14)μg/mL]and *** leaves[(15.70±1.43)μg/mL].The methanol extract of *** bark showed 95.08%inhibition ofβ-carotene *** extracts showed moderate inhibition towards tyrosinase activity with an IC50 of more than 100μg/*** methanol extract of *** stem bark showed the highest inhibition(78.46%)against ***:These results showed that both Calophyllum species are potential sources of antioxidant and cholinesterase *** study is needed for the isolation and characterization of the active metabolites responsible for both activities.

This work is focused on developing zinc-doped hydroxyapatite-zeolite(Zn HA-Zeo)and polycaprolactone(PCL)composite coatings on magnesium(Mg)substrate to improve the corrosion resistance and antimicrobial ***-coating technique was used to coat Zn HA-Zeo/PCL on the Mg substrate at room *** samples were subjected to field emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared(FTIR),energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX)and antimicrobial *** demonstrated that composite coatings consist of HA,scholzite,zeolite,and PCL *** spectra indicated the presence of calcium(Ca),silicon(Si),aluminum(Al),zinc(Zn),phosphorus(P)and oxygen(O).The composite surface appeared in spherical-like microstructure on coating with thickness ranging 226-260μ***-doped HA-Zeo composite coating had a high corrosion resistance and provided sufficient protection to the Mg surface against galvanic *** Zn HA-Zeo coating samples exhibited superior disc inhibition by confirming antimicrobial activity against the *** as compared to HA-Zeo *** these results showed that the Zn HA-Zeo coatings not only improved the corrosion resistance,but also enhanced the antimicrobial property and hence they can be used as suitable candidates for implant applications.
