Abstract
The ethanol crude extract of stem bark of Holoptelea integrifolia Planch. traditionally used in Indian system of medicine was screened for its antioxidant activity using α-tocopherol as standard antioxidant. The free radical scavenging potential of the extract was evaluated by two different antioxidant methods; ferric thiocyanate and thiobarbituric acid method. The ethanol extract was found to exhibit good antioxidant property. Further physicochemical constants, elemental and heavy metal analysis of stem bark have been described.
Highlights
The free radical scavenging potential of the extract was evaluated by two different antioxidant methods; ferric thiocyanate and thiobarbituric acid method
Phosphate buffer, ammonium thiocyanate were purchased from SRL Chemicals, Chennai, Ferrous chloride was procured from Central Drug House (P) Ltd, New Delhi, Hydrogen peroxide was procured from Chemspure, Chennai and Trichloroacetic acid, Thiobarbituric acid, Vitamin E were purchased from S
In this report we investigated the ethanolic extract of the bark of Holoptelea integrifolia Planch for antioxidant activity, as review of literature afforded no information on the antioxidant potential of the plant
