Abstract

FRAP assay proved all the extracts of Areca catechu L. nut have antioxidant properties because IC50 values of all the extracts of the same were less than that of ascorbic acid. Remaining antioxidant assays like DPPH radical scavenging assay, H2O2 scavenging assay, and Fe2+ chelating assay showed more antioxidant properties in ethyl acetate extract and nonpolar solvent extracts like n- hexane, and chloroform respectively. Antioxidant properties of Areca catechu L. nut varied depending upon the different solvent extract.
