DETERMINATION OF ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY, TOTAL PHENOLIC CONTENT, AND TOTAL FLAVONOID CONTENT OF ROOTS, STEM BARK, AND LEAVES OF Elaeocarpus mastersii KING

Abstract: In this research, antioxidant activity, total phenolic, and flavonoid content of n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol fractions of roots, stem bark, and leaves of Elaeocarpus mastersii King were determined by the colorimetric method using DPPH assay (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, and aluminum chloride reagent, respectively. Phytochemical screening was evaluated by specific reaction of constituents to the specific reagent. Ethyl acetate fraction had the best value of phenolic content… Show more

“…They have various biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anticarcinogenic, anti-mutagenic and modulatory effects on enzymatic activities. Flavonoids possess high antioxidant activities that can protect the body system against free radical and other diseases such as arteriosclerosis and diabetes 9,[26][27][28] .…”
