Isolation and Extraction of Flavonoid from the Leaves of Rauwolfia serpentina and Evaluation of DPPH-scavenging Antioxidant Potential
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the present work, methanolic extract from the leaves of Rauwolfia serpentina were analyzed phytochemically for the presence of flavonoids. Phytochemical studies revealed the presence of flavonoidal structure, by using chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques, 3,5,7,4’tetrahydroxy flavone i.e., Kaempherol is identified. Antioxidant potential was determined by DPPH method.

Ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) was developed to extract phenolic and flavonoid antioxidants from Clerodendrum cyrtophyllum Turcz leaves. The optimal experimental parameters for antioxidant extraction from C. cyrtophyllum leaves were measured using single-factor experimentation combined with response surface methodology (RSM). Total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) ...
