In Vitro Antioxidant Potential and Phytochemical Study on Flower and Leaves of Cassia auriculata

The research work carried out to estimate the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the leaf and flower extracts of Cassia auriculata to innovate an antioxidant potential by in vitro method. Detection of alkaloids, flavonoid, tannin, carbohydrates, steroids, saponins and glycosides contents of leaf and flower samples were done by phytochemical analysis. In addition, the antioxidant of leaf and flower extracts of C. auriculata was analyzed for its free radical scavenging property. The results of the study investigated that the total antioxidant activity was found to be high in the methanolic extracts of flower and leaf samples of C. auriculata and also recorded the total phenolic and total flavonoid contents to be more than the chloroform and ether extracts. Our innovation concluded that the extracts of both flower and leaf of C. auriculata showed an excellent antioxidant potential effect and it can be utilized for medicinal purpose to protect the human from several diseases.
