Authors: Kumar J* And Devi B

ABSTRACT
In the present study the Preliminary Phytochemical Investigation and free radical scavenging of Acyranthes Aspera & Calotropis Gigantea both Plants was studies. Phytochemical investigation and free radical scavenging of Acyranthes Aspera & Calotropis Gigantea both plants ethanolic leaves extract. These both plants are used in traditional medicine for a number of ailments. A. Aspera & C. Gigantea both are a persistent plant with juicy, thick, and stout stem. Both plants leaves are smile and broad and panicle. Rhizomes are formed under the soil; send up derived shoots near the parent plant. The present study was concluded that the presence of phytochemical in the both plant ethanolic leaves extracts A. Aspera & C. Gigantea and both plants exhibited antioxidant activity when subjected to the radical scavenging tests. The A. Aspera results (IC50) for DPPH free radical scavenging assay were found to be (153.29?g/kg), and H2O2 radical scavenging test to be (117.12?g/ml) and The C. Gigantea results (IC50) for DPPH free radical scavenging assay were found to be (135.33?g/kg), and H2O2 radical scavenging test to be (97.10?g/ml). The results of the present study also revealed that preliminary phytochemical screening of ethanolic leaves extractshave Tannins, phenolic compounds, carbohydrate, Saponins, glycosides, flavonoids, alkaloids and fats.
