Overview

Analysis shows methanolic extract of Senna alata exhibits significant radical scavenging and metal chelating properties.

Key Points

  • Methanolic extract of Senna alata demonstrated substantial radical scavenging ability, indicating potential health benefits.
  • Total phenolic content was measured at 18.0 mgGAE/g, significantly higher than flavonoid content of 10.9 mgQAE/g.
  • Chelation assays for copper and iron showed higher percentages in the extract compared to EDTA, showcasing its metal-chelating capacity.
  • The findings suggest that Senna alata may be a valuable natural antioxidant for combating diseases associated with free radicals.
