Abstract: The aim of present work was to assess the total phenolic content (TPC) & total flavonoid content (TFC) of methanolic & water extracts of Aegle marmelos, Asparagus racemosus, Cassia alata, Kyllinga monocephala and Momordica dioica from Chhattisgarh of India. Presence of TPC in the methanolic & water extract of A. marmelos, A. racemosus, C. alata, K. monocephala, M. dioica as followed 13.55 mg & 15.69 mg, 18.84 mg & 20.03 mg, 33.65 mg & 36.23 ms, 38.89 mg & 40.13 mg, 16.98 mg & 20.78 mg whereas, TFC as followed 1.59 mg & 1.96 mg, 2.02 mg & 2.49 mg, 3.97 mg & 4.25 mg, 4.15 mg & 4.75 mg, 2.45 mg & 2.89 mg. The major phenolic & flavonoid compounds identified were gallic acid, vanillin, catechol and Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, Sodium carbonate, sodium nitrile and quercetin. And this was also supported by significant correlation with TPC and TFC. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper presenting comprehensive data on TPC & TFC properties of these plants of Chhattisgarh.
