Phytoconstituents and antioxidant Activity of extracts of Glycine Max Seeds
Abstract
Glycine max is a medicinal and economical plant, belonging to the genus fabacea widely used in Mediterranean countries. In this study, we have evaluated the phytochemical constituents and its antioxidant i.e. DPPH, Hydrogen Peroxide, Reducing Peroxide, total polyphenols and flavonoids contents of methanolic and aqueous extracts of seeds. The total polyphenols content of the methanolic extract was 769 and aq 1139 mg/ml. μg GAE/ mg extract and flavonoids was 107, 120 mg/ml. In the DPPH assay, Aq extract showed the higher scavenging capacity (IC50 followed by aqueous extract with IC50 value 69.17 mg/ml and methanolic extract 4.17 mg/ml.
