Potential of Neuroprotective Antioxidant-b Peltophorum Africanum Sond.(fabaceae)

There is ample scientific and empirical evidence supporti the control of neurodegenerative disorders. Antioxidants may have neuroregenerative roles, by reducing or reversing cellular damage a loss. Although demand for phytotherapeutic agents is growing, there plant–derived extracts gain wider acceptance and use. We have eva africanum (weeping wattle), a plant widespread in the tropics and t acute and chronic pain, anxiety and depression. The dried leaves, b with acetone. Thin layer chromatograms were sprayed with 0.2% methanol for screening for antioxidants. Quantification of antioxida 2, 5,7,8-tetramethylchromane-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox) and L-asco two free radicals, 2,2 ́-azinobis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfon Results of our study show that the bark and root extracts had high and Trolox, a synthetic vitamin-E analogue. The respective TEAC values for the bark and root extracts, and Trolox were 1.08, 1.28 an μg/mL) was more active than the leaf 6.54 (μg/mL), but much less (3.82 μg/mL) extracts. Continued work on P. africanum, and ot neuroscientists with potent neuroprotective antioxidant therapeutics.
