Phytochemical Study and Evaluation of the Antioxidant Activities of Leaves From Vernoniaamygdalina
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The aim of this study is to highlight the phytochemical composition and antioxidant potential of the ethereal extract of the leaves of Vernoniaamygdalina, a plant used in traditional medicine in Côte dIvoire.Phytochemical studies using TLC and LC-MS revealed, in addition to coumarins, flavonoids and phenolic acids. Determination of the antioxidant potential by TLC and spectrophotometry using the DPPH radical showed the antioxidant power of Vernoniaamygdalina leaves with a CR50 of 0.01995 ± 0.2x10-5 % mg/mL.The many pharmacological properties of V. amygdalina would therefore depend on the coexistence of these phytocompounds.
