Figure 1:
Determination of total phenolic contents (mg GAE/g dry wt.) in six medicinal plants in vitro. Data represent mean ± SD, using one way analysis of variance (one way ANOVA), data was statistically analyzed. Differences in means were sorted out using Duncans Multiple Range (DMR) test with the help of SAS 9.1 for windows. The P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Figure 2:
In vitro antioxidant activity of six medical plans by DPPH assay. Data represent mean ± SD, using one way analysis of variance (one way ANOVA), data was statistically analyzed. Differences in means were sorted out using Duncans Multiple Range (DMR) test with the help of SAS 9.1 for windows. The P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Figure 3:
Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity. Data represent mean ± SD, using one way analysis of variance (one way ANOVA), data was statistically analyzed. Differences in means were sorted out using Duncans Multiple Range (DMR) test with the help of SAS 9.1 for windows. The P< 0.05 was considerd statistically significant.
Figure 4:
Superoxide radical scavenging activity. Data represent mean ± SD, using one way analysis of variance (one way ANOVA), data was statistically analyzed. Differences in means were sorted out using Duncans Multiple Range (DMR) test with the help of SAS 9.1 for windows. The P< 0.05 was considerd statistically significant.
