Rutin is a flavonoid glycoside that has been found in buckwheat and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4,5 It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH; Item No. 14805) and ABTS (Item No. 27317) radicals when used at a concentration of 163.79 µM, as well as inhibits iron autoxidation, in cell-free assays.1,2 Dietary administration of rutin (0.2% w/v) reduces tumor growth and the number of lung metastases in a B16/F10 murine melanoma model.3 Rutin (50 and 100 mg/kg) decreases intestinal acidity, increases intestinal activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, and reduces intestinal levels of protein carbonyls and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) formation in a rat model of intestinal toxicity induced by methotrexate (Item No. 13960).4 It also increases the time spent exploring the novel object in the novel object recognition (NOR) test and increases recognition and discriminative indices in a rat model of short-term episodic memory deficits induced by scopolamine (Item No. 14108).5
