PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING AND ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF ETHANOLIC EXTRACT OF BOUCEROSIA TRUNCATO-CORONATA (SEDGW.) GRAVELY MAYUR  

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 9

Abstract

As a measure of testing the medicinal properties of B. truncato-coronata ethanolic extract obtained from both in vivo and in vitro plants were studied for phytochemical test and antioxidant activity by DPPH and FRAP. Quantitative phytochemical analysis confirms the presence of various secondary metabolites. The in vivo and in vitro extracts exhibited appreciable level of scavenging activity 94.22 and 91.20 at 600 µg/ml respectively. Better reducing activity in both in vivo and in vitro extracts is 17.44 and 16.47 respectively was observed in 600 µg/ml concentrations.
