Abstract
Methanolic extracts of three medicinal plant species, namely Hyptis suaveolens, Tridax procumbens, and Azadirachta indica, were screened for phytochemicals and antioxidant potential. DPPH (1, 1- diphenyl 2, picrylhydrazyl) radical, hydroxyl (OH.) radical, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) radical, and superoxide (O2.) radical scavenging experiments were used to study antioxidant properties. Total phenolic content I (TPC) was measured using the Folin-Ciocalteu method, and total flavonoid content was measured using the aluminium chloride method (TFC). The methanolic extracts of A. indica had the highest radical scavenging ability, with an IC50 value of 11.71 2.01 g/ml in the DPPH experiment.
