ABSTRACT
Dolichandrone falcata Seem.(Family: Bignoniaceae), has reported for different biological activities such as anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, antiestrogenic and anxiolytic activities. Therefore, the present study was estimated the invitro antioxidant effect of aqueous extract of stem bark of Dolichandrone falcate by using DPPH scavenging test and reducing power method. The AEDF exhibited a significant dose dependent inhibition of DPPH activity. AEDF and reference standard ascorbic acid have showed similar anti-oxidant activity with reducing power method also.
Key words: Dolichandrone falcate, Antioxidant, Reducing Power Method, DPPH radical scavenging.
