“…KEF was found to be most effective among all extract/fractions. A number of polyphenolic compounds from leaves of K. paniculata have been reported including 3''-O-galloyl-4'-O-galloyl-4-O-galloyl-gallic acid, ethyl pheptagallate, 3''-galloylquercitrin, catechin, galloylepicatechin, isorhamnetin, kaempferol-3-O-arabinopyranoside, quercitrin, methyl p-digallate, methyl m-digallate, p-digalloyl acid, m-digalloyl acid, hyperin, kaempferol-3-O-alpha-L-rhamnoside, 6,8-dihydroxy-afzelin, afzelin 3"-O-gallate and quercetin-3'-O-beta-D-arabinopyranoside (Mahmoud et al, 2001;Lin et al, 2002). Earlier, we had reported that chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol and aqueous fractions of K. paniculata are rich in phenolic and flavonoid compounds and have shown free radical scavenging activity in different in vitro assays viz DPPH assay, Reducing Power assay, Superoxide radical scavenging assay, ABTS cation radical scavenging assay (Kumar et al, 2011a, b).…”
