Estimation of ferulic acid from selected plant materials by Spectrophotometry and High performance liquid chromatography

Ferulic acid is an abundant phytophenolic compound present in plant cell wall. possess anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties. A simple, sensitive reproducible spectrophotometric method has been developed for quantitative estimation of ferulic from selected materials such as rice bran, wheat bran bamboo shoot. The blue coloured chromogen obtained after the reaction was measured at wavelength 718 nm against blank reagent. obeyed linearity over range 1?g/ml - 8?g/ml. An HPLC also materials.
