ABSTRACT
Reactive oxygen species play a critical role in cardiovascular diseases,
inflammatory diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, cancer and
ageing. Currently, there has been an increased interest globally to
identify the plant base antioxidants that are pharmacoglically potent
and no have side effects for use in preventive medicine and the food
industry. As plants produce significant amount of antioxidants to
prevent oxidative stress through their redox active secondary
metabolite, they represent a potential source of new compounds with
antioxidant activity.Considering the growing interest in possessing the
antioxidant capacity of medicinal plants, the present study compared to
standard 28.92 The data suggested that Pedalium murex possess high
scavenging activity and has the property to modulate endogeneous
oxidative stress and may be effective neuraceutical to abrogate
oxidative aims at phytochemical chraracterisation and to investigate the invitro antioxidant
activity of ethanol extract of mangrove associated plant Pedalium murex using DPPH model
.Total phenolic and flavanoid contents were also determined. A signigicant correlation
existed between the concentration of the extract and percentage of inhibition of free radicals.
The extract showed potent DPPH radical activity with IC50 values 81.75 stress in the body.
