ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY BY DPPH RADICAL SCAVENGING METHOD OF METHANOLIC EXTRACT OF N- BUTANOL FRACTRION OF TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS LINN. (FAMILY ZYGOPHYLLACEAE)
AbstractIn this study antioxidant activity was performed by DPPH (1,1 diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging method for Tribulus terrestris L. whole plant methanolic extraction fractionation with toluene and n-butanol in succession. The obtained fractions were concentrated under reduced pressure to yield corresponding antioxidant activity. The IC50 concentration for the standard, ascorbic acid and BF-TTME was found to be 0.085 and 4.5 μg/ml respectively.
