Abstract

Traditional system of medicine is a part of Indian life. The present study was carried out to know the anti oxidant activity of selected medicinal plants viz, Aegle marmelos, Butea monosperma, Comnifora wighti, Holostemma ada-kodien, Decalepis hamiltonii, Gloriosa superba, Gymnema sylvestre and Santalum album were studied from Indalwai forest of Nizamabad. DPPH, Nitric Oxide, Superoxide, Hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity of methanol leaf extracts at different concentrations were studied (ascorbic acid used as standard). The present study revealed the anti oxidant activity of the leaf extracts of selected plants at all concentrations tested.
