Abstract
The antioxidant activity of ethanolic extract of Cassia hirsuta (Family-Caesalpiniaceae) leaves has been investigated in the present study. The antioxidant activity of the Cassia hirsuta leaves ethanolic extract was assessed by DPPH (1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging method. Extract showed significant DPPH free radical scavenging effect compared with standard antioxidant ascorbic acid. IC50 value of ascorbic acid and leaves extract was found 1.25 μg/ml and 200.96 μg/ml, respectively. The value of extract indicated significant antioxidant activity of the plant.
