Abstract
the plant kingdom serves as a reservoir of many organic compounds that have been used for many therapeutic purposes. Oxidative reaction plays major part of our life, cause production of reactive oxygen species. The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity of ethanol and ethyl acetate extract of two potential medicinal plants like Achyranthes aspera and Cassia auriculata. The crude extract of the plant was subjected to preliminary qualitative analysis to identify the major functional groups and phytochemical substances like alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, carbohydrates, and proteins. Antioxidant activities of the plant extract was screened by free radical scavenging activity (DPPH). Dried leaf and stem powder of these medicinal plant was extracted and concentrated to yield a dry residue. Our findings indicate that Achyranthes aspera possess a significant antioxidant property followed by Cassia auriculata.
