Antidiabetic and antioxidant properties of Ficus deltoidea fruit extracts and fractions

Table 1 Phytochemical constituents of the crude aqueous extracts and fractions of the different fruit varieties of F. deltoidea

F. deltoidea	Total flavonoid content (mg quercetin equivalents/g dried extract/fraction)	Total phenolic content (mg gallic acid equivalents/g dried extract/fraction)	Sugar (μmol glucose/g dried extract/fraction)	Protein (μg protein/mg dried extract/fraction)
SF (var. angustifolia)
SFC	17.34 ± 0.63^a	121.62 ± 4.86^f	2.58 ± 0.03^l	46.67 ± 1.67^p
SFE	16.51 ± 0.60^a	47.09 ± 1.68^g	ND	ND
SFW	12.37 ± 1.15^b	59.29 ± 1.51^h	1.83 ± 0.05^m	56.11 ± 5.36^p
BF (var. kunstleri)
BFC	26.65 ± 1.00^c	96.89 ± 2.57ⁱ	2.35 ± 0.03ⁿ	57.78 ± 3.85^q
BFE	12.31 ± 2.19^d	36.27 ± 2.98^j	ND	ND
BFW	7.46 ± 0.54^e	90.62 ± 1.27^k	2.45 ± 0.05ⁿ	73.33 ± 4.99^r

Each value is expressed as a mean ± SD (n = 3). Values with different superscript letters between the same variety, within the same column are significantly different at p < 0.01. ND: not determined. SFC, SFE and SFW indicate crude aqueous extract, ethyl acetate fraction and water fraction of SF (var. angustifolia). BFC, BFE and BFW indicate crude aqueous extract, ethyl acetate fraction and water fraction of BF (var. kuntsleri).
