IN VITRO ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF METHANOLIC EXTRACT OF ARTEMISIA NILIGIRICA (CLARKE) LEAVESRathishkumar. S, S. N. Suresh*, Rajeshwari.V, P. Sagadevan, S. Gayathri and D. Vithya Eswari PG & Research Department of Biotechnology, Kongunadu Arts and Science College, Coimbatore, India. ABSTRACT In vitro antioxidant effects of the methanolic extract of Artemisia niligirica leaves were determined by both enzymic (Catalase, Superoxide dismutase, Glutathione reductase, Glutathione-stransferase and Glutathione peroxidase) and non enzymic (Ascorbic acid, α- Tocopherol, Polyphenols, Reduced glutathione, Flavonoids and Carotenoids) methods. Preliminary phytochemical screening revealed that the extract of the leaves of Artemisia niligirica possesses Tannin, Terpenoids, Alkaloids, and Flavonoids materials. The results obtained in the present study indicated that the Artemisia niligirica might be a good source of natural antioxidant. Keywords: antioxidant, α- Tocopherol, Polyphenols, Reduced glutathione. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
