ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY, COLOUR AND MINERAL CONTENT OF HERBAL TEA PREPARED FROM Cosmos caudatus LEAVES AT DIFFERENT MATURITY STAGES

Abstract: In recent years, increasing consumption of herbal tea is a worldwide trend because of their refreshing taste, positive potential health effect, convenience, abundant resources and also cheaper in price. However, different maturity stages of plants being used as raw material could affect the antioxidant activity, colour and mineral content in herbal tea. Thus, this present study was aimed at determining antioxidant activity, colour and mineral content of herbal tea prepared from Cosmos caudatus (C. caudatus) le… Show more

“…Mineral element assay using EDX microanalysis indicated presence of Mg, Ca, P, C, O, K, Cl and Al in G. procumbens leaves (Siddiq et al, 2009) and therefore considered a potential source of nutrient element. Estimation of various mineral elements in medicinal plant is important in determining efficacy of herbal plant and their pharmacological activity (Fatanah, et al, 2016). An imbalance of mineral nutrient could alter the contents of flavonoids.…”
