In-Vitro Antioxidant Activity of Solanum jasminoides Paxt. Extracts
Abstract
Three successive whole plant extracts (petroleum ether, methanol and water) of Solanum jasminoides Paxt. were screened for their in vitro antioxidant activity using 2,2-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzo-thiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS), hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide, hydroxyl radical, inhibition of lipid peroxidation, deoxyribose and p-NDA methods. The successive methanol extract exhibited significance antioxidant activity and hence merits further investigation.
