Abstract

EVALUATION OF ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF PHYLLANTHUS ACIDUS

Jagajothi Angamuthu*, Manimekalai Ganapathy and Vasthi Kennedy Evanjelene

ABSTRACT

The present study was undertaken to find the antioxidant value of Phyllanthus acidus in leaf and fruit methanolic extract. Antioxidants have been reported to prevent oxidative damage caused by free radical and can be used in cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory diseases. Antioxidant activity was evaluated by using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil (DPPH) free radical assay, reducing power assessment. The extract showed moderate to good antioxidant activity. In DPPH radical scavenging assay the percentage of inhibition was found to be 13.85% in Leaf methanol and 12.20 in Fruit methanol. The ascorbic acid (Standard) is 12.03 when compared to the standard the leaf and fruit methanolic extract shows better activity. The results of the present study indicate that the extract possesses good antioxidant potential.

Keywords: Phyllanthus acidus, Antioxidant, DPPH.
