Total polyphenol content and antioxidants capacity of three Africans antipyretic plants
Keywords:
Antioxidants, Total phenol, Oxidative StressAbstract
Introduction: Ceiba P. Crossopteryx F. Pseudocedrela K . are used as a nutritional and medicinal (Antipyretic). The aim of this study was to perform the dosage of polyphenol content and their antioxidants capacity.
Methods: Aqueous extracts of three plants leaves were used to determine polyphenol content using Folin-Ciocalteu and antioxidants activities by DPPH radical scavenging and FRAP Methods.
Results: We found much more total phenol content in the leaves of Pseudocedrela K . respectively (352.57 mg/g). Antioxidants activities of pseudocedrela (279.9 mMol eq Trolox) by the Frap method was better than these others plants. (Trolox; R2= 0.9968). The IC50 = 12.1
