Abstract:
Aim of this study was to compare the total phenolic, flavonoid contents and antioxidant
activities of aqueous and methanol extracts of these chooranams.
The total phenolic and total flavonoid contents were evaluated using the Folin-Ciocaleteu
method and Aluminium chloride method respectively. Hot aqueous and methanol extracts of these
chooranams were screened for their potential in-vitro antioxidant activities using tests such as DPPH
activity, FRAP assay, ABTS activity with standards of trolox and iron chelating activity with control as
EDTA respectively. All these analyses were carried out using High-throughput 96-well micro-plate reader.
