Abstract:

The antioxidant activity of extracts from stems of Derris scandens and Cryptolepis buchanani, and leaves of Tamarindus indica, Acacia concinna, Bauhinia malabarica and Andrographis paniculata, was investigated in vitro. The antioxidant activity of the extracts, at 4 dilutions of extract to water (1:20, 1:40, 1:80 and 1:160 by weight), was demonstrated by inhibition of haemoglobin precipitation caused by the oxidants. The extracts of T. indica, Acacia concinna and B. malabarica showed the most potent inhibitory effect.
