Abstract:
Antioxidant agents are intensifies that can defer or repress the oxidation of lipids or different atoms by hindering the inception or engendering of oxidizing chain responses. The cell reinforcement movement of phenolic mixes is basically because of their redox properties, which can assume a significant function in adsorbing and killing free revolutionaries, extinguishing singlet and trio oxygen, or decaying peroxides. As of late, intrigue has expanded extensively in finding normally happening cell reinforcements for use in nourishments or restorative materials to supplant engineered cancer prevention agents, which are being limited because of their cancer-causing nature. . In this study various antioxidant activity like DPPH scavenging activity, Nitric oxide scavenging activity, hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity, Superoxide dismutase and reducing power assay performed to evaluate antioxidant potential of Bauhinia Variegata Linn. It indicated greatest % scavenging activty for DPPH extremist rummaging, hydrogen peroxide scavenging and super-oxide dismutase scavenging individually at 400 μg/mL when compared with BHA and ascorbic acid. It additionally demonstrated most extreme absorbance at 400 μg/mL. The concentrate of B. variegata stem bark indicated the positive trial of flavonoids. The cell reinforcement action might be because of flavonoid and phenolic content present in the stem bark of this plant. Thusly, further investigations might be performed for detachment and recognizable proof of more cell reinforcement segments of B. variegata plant.
