Antioxidant and anticancer activities of Moringa oleifera leaves
Moringa oleifera leaves extracted with methanol and dichloromethane were screened for antioxidant activity. The in vitro cancer antiproliferative and chemopreventive properties were also investigated. Radical scavenging assays with 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2 ́-azino-bis 3ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) were used to determine the antioxidant activity. The antiprolif...
