ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY BY DPPH RADICAL SCAVENGING METHOD OF METHANOLIC EXTRACT OF N- BUTANOL FRACTRION OF TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS LINN. (FAMILY ZYGOPHYLLACEAE)
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacognosy - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
In this study Anti oxidant activity was performed by DPPH(1,1 diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl) radical scavenging method for Tribulus terrestris L. Whole plant methanolic extraction fractionation with toluene and n-butanol in succession. The obtained fractions were concentrated under reduced pressure to yield corresponding antioxidant activity. The IC50 concentration for the standard,ascorbic acid and for BF-TTME were found to be 0.085 and 4.5 μg/ml respectively.
