ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY, PHENOLS AND FLAVONOID CONTENTS OF PLANT EXTRACTS

Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacognosy - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 12

Abstract

The extracts of two different plant were screened for their phenols, flavonoid and antioxidant activity by DPPH method for two locations. In this study seed oil and defatted seed cake extracts of M. azedarach and P. pinnata from two locations indicate high phenolics (13.5-51.2 mgGAE/g) and flavonoids content (1.5-4.2 mgCAE/g). The IC50 value was (0.032-0.048 mg/ml).
