Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the preliminary phytochemical content and antioxidant potential of the hydroalcoholic leaf extracts of Hemionitis arifolia.
 Methods: Total phenolic, flavonoid and alkaloid contents were evaluated using spectrophotometric methods. The free radical scavenging activity of the leaf hydroalcoholic extract were evaluated against DPPH+, ABTS+, Reducing power assay and nitric oxide assay were determined.
 Results: The hydroalcoholic concentrate of H. arifolia uncovered the most elevated polyphenol content when contrasted and the other phytoconstituents. Absolute phenol content of the hydroalcoholic separate was observed to be 31.78%, flavonoid content is 1.02% and Alkaloid content is 30.40% individually. The Solvent concentrates showed huge cell reinforcement movement, with hydroalcoholic extract. ABTS Assay, DPPH assay, Reducing power assay and Nitric oxide assay where the Inhibition concentration were 667.75µg/ml, 734.25 µg/ml, 791.58 µg/ml and 899.67 µg/ml.
 Conclusion: This study suggests that hydroalcoholic leaf extracts of H. arifolia could be a potential source of natural antioxidant and justifies its use in ethno-medicine.
Highlights
The search for new cures has always been guided by traditional information on medicinal plants
H. arifolia leaves were tested for phytochemicals in a variety of solvents, including chloroform, ethyl alcohol, ethanol, methanol and hydroalcoholic
No tests have been found in the literature to demonstrate the presence of any of these phytoconstituents, nor at any level, and only coumarins have been reported for the species [6]
Summary
The search for new cures has always been guided by traditional information on medicinal plants. It is well known that medicinal plants have been used to cure a variety of maladies, including asthma, stomach difficulties, skin diseases, respiratory and urinary complications, and liver and cardiovascular infection, since ancient times [4,5]. This observational data comes from the plant protection framework, which generates various builds with various subatomic designs that are far superior to those obtained from engineered items [6]. The explanation of new dynamic standards has sparked a lot of interest
