Trigonella foenum graecum, Antioxidant, DPPH, Phytochemical analysisAbstract
In the current work, we completed a comprehensive assessment of the relative antioxidant activity in extracts from a few different medicinal plant species.The extracts' effectiveness at scavenging 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radicals was assessed spectrophotometrically. The highest degree of radical scavenging was 52.54%, while the IC50 value was 93.54.Trigonella foenum graecum extract demonstrates how the greater concentration of phytoconstituents chemicals leads to more powerful radical scavenging results.
