Abstract

The aim of the study was to investigate Phytochemical constituents and antioxidant capacity of aqueous extract of Manilakara hexandra mature fruits ( Mh .MF) to testify its ethnobotanical claim. Furthermore, estimation of Total Phenolic Content (TPC), Total Flavonoid Content (TFC), Total Flavonols (TF), Total Proanthocyanidins (TPA), Extraction Yield (EY) were done. Antioxidant capacity was done by calorimetric methods like DPPH assay, TAC and ABTS assay. Results showed high contents of TPC, TFC, TF, and TPA which exert antioxidant nature. Anti-oxidant assays and the quantification of phytoconstituents reveal anti-radical aptitude and naturally occurring therapeutic agent which prove the ethnobotanical claim.
