In vitro antioxidant activity of methanol extraction of rhodomyrtus tomentosa (aiton) hassk. leaves / Nur Ramizah Hamzah

This study aims to estimate in vitro antioxidant activity in 80 % methanolic extraction of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaves. The leaves were collected from Kelantan, grinded and sequentially extracted with methanol. Phytochemical properties of the Rhodomyrtus tomentosa leaves was estimated by using Foll...
