| Summary: | This study was conducted to evaluate the Total Phenohc Content (TPC) and to determine antioxidant activity from leaves of Ficus deltoidea var angustifolia species. The samples were extracted using water and methanol as a solvent. The Total phenohc content was determined from the Standard calibration curve of gallic acid and the antioxidant was measured using DPPH radical scavenging method. The result obtained showed that water extract contained higher value (7830 mg/g GAE) compared to methanol extract (3216 mg/g GAE) and the water extract has a higher DPPH scavenging activity as compared to methanol extract. |
