Lotus leaf extract is the dried leaf extract of Nymphaeaceae lotus, which mainly contains alkaloids, flavonoids, volatile oils and other ingredients. Flavonoids are scavengers of most oxygen free radicals, and have significant effects on the treatment of coronary heart disease, hypertension and other diseases, and have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects; they can be used as raw materials for cardiovascular diseases, and can also be widely used in functional Food, health food, beverage, food preservative and cosmetics.1. Antibacterial effect
The ethanol extract of lotus leaf has certain antibacterial effects on Penicillium, yeast, Aspergillus niger and Rhodotorula, but the antibacterial effect on yeast and Rhodotorula is better than that on Penicillium and Aspergillus niger, and With the increase of extract concentration, the antibacterial effect was enhanced.
2. Weight loss and lipid-lowering effect
The flavonoids of lotus leaf can significantly reduce serum cholesterol, lower serum triglyceride, reduce body weight and increase serum and enzyme activity in rats with hyperlipidemia. The lotus leaf extract can reduce the digestive capacity of the body, reduce the absorption of lipids and carbohydrates, and strengthen the regulation of fat metabolism and energy loss, thereby effectively resisting obesity.
3. Antioxidant effect
The water extract of lotus leaf is a good antioxidant, and it can show very strong antioxidant capacity at a lower concentration. And the antioxidant activity of methanol extract of lotus leaf is comparable to that of BHA, slightly higher than that of á-tocopherol.
4. Anticonvulsant action
Nuciferine has no selective inhibition on nerve excitation caused by amino acids. Nuciferine has an inhibitory effect on the nerve excitation induced by glutamate, but it has a weak inhibitory effect on the nerve excitation induced by aspartic acid, and has no inhibitory effect on the excitation induced by acetylcholine.
5. Antispasmodic effect
Nuciferine contained in lotus leaf extract has an antispasmodic effect on smooth muscle.
