Abstract

The primary supply of minerals, vitamins, carbohydrates, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, and other nutrients in the globe is found in fruits and fruit peels. They are a source of supplementary antioxidants as well. DPPH radical scavenging, Catalase activity, and Total Reducing Power were used to assess the antioxidant potential of Punica granatum, Citrus limetta, and Musa paradisiaca. The best antioxidant activity for DPPH assays is demonstrated by methanol peel extracts of Punica granatum (97.35), Musa paradisiaca (98.1), and Citrus limetta (96.08) at a concentration of 0.1 mM/ml. Citrus limetta and Musa paradisiaca had the highest antioxidant capabilities, with catalase activity of fresh Punica granatum peel measuring 0.13 mg/ml, 0.02 mg/ml, and 0.02 mg/ml, respectively. The greatest total decreasing inhibition. Citrus limetta (98.35%), Musa paradisiaca (97.53%), and Punica granatum peel extract have the highest levels of overall reducing power inhibition. The antioxidant efficiency of each fruit peel extract used in the current study is good.
