In Vitro Antioxidant And Free Radical Scavenging Activity Of Root Extracts Of Uraria Lagopoides
In the present study, lessThan i greaterThan invitro lessThan /i greaterThan antioxidant potential and free radical scavenging activities of aqueous and ethanolic root extract of lessThan i greaterThan Uraria lagopoides lessThan /i greaterThan were evaluated by 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging assay, Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, Nitric oxide scavenging activity, Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP). In all the testing, a significant correlation existed between concentrations of the extract and percentage inhibition of free radicals, metal chelating and reducing power. These results indicated that ethanolic extract of lessThan i greaterThan Uraria lagopoides lessThan /i greaterThan could be effective against free radical mediated diseases.
