ABSTRACT Petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol and water extracts of Roylea elegans (aerial parts) was screened for assessing bioactive phytochemical constituents. The preliminary phytochemical screening using the standard phytochemical tests detected the presence of alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, terpenoids and phenols in different solvent extracts. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents along with total antioxidant capacity of the ethyl acetate extract of Roylea elegans (aerial parts) was evaluated to explore the reliable and potential sources of novel natural antioxidants. The ethyl acetate extract showed high flavonoid content. Due to high flavonoid content it showed better antioxidant activity. Keywords: Roylea elegans, Total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activity. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
