Abstract

The objective of the study was to investigate the Phytochemicals of Ethyl acetate and Methanol extracts of Annona reticulata L. stem bark. 


The present study reports physicochemical characterization, antioxidant of stem bark extracts from Annona reticulata L. plant collected from local region of Nanded, Maharashtra, India, and authenticated by botanist.  Different physical parameters like ash values, extractive value, Loss on drying, etc. were evaluated for powdered drug. The extracts were obtained from Soxhlet method by using Petroleum ether, Ethyl acetate and methanol as solvents for extraction and subjected for preliminary phytochemical evaluation and antioxidant studies. 


Total phenolic and flavonoids content were also analyzed. The presence of primary and secondary metabolites such as carbohydrate, proteins, alkaloids, phenolic compounds, was confirmed through preliminary phytochemical analysis. DPPH free radical scavenging assays showed antioxidant activities with increase in concentration of Ethyl acetate and Methanol stem bark extracts.
