Abstract
Peperomia pellucida (L.) belonging to family Piperaceae mainly grows in rainy season in Bangladesh. n-Hexane, dichloromethane and methanol extracts of leaves of P. pellucida were tested for antioxidant activity, antioxidant capacity, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and cytotoxicity. Dichloromethane extract of the plant showed significant phenolic, flavonoid and antioxidant capacity while the methanol extract possessed potent antioxidant activity. None of the extract exhibited any cytotoxicity against HeLa cell lines
