Antioxidant Activity and Total Phenolic Content of Quercus coccifera L
نویسندگان
چکیده
The water and MeOH extracts of the stems of Quercus coccifera L. are screened for their radical scavenging activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH), superoxide (SO) and nitric oxide (NO) radicals spectroscopically. Dose dependent radical scavenging activity was observed and the results were found to be comparable to that of known antioxidant compounds BHA (3-t-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole), ascorbic acid and quercetin. In addition, gallic acid equivalent total phenolic contents of the plants were also determined using Folin-Ciocalteau reagent.
