Abstract

The purpose of the present study is to evaluate in vitro antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory activity of methanolic extract of the leaves and the bark of the plant Ceropegia rollae Hemadri. The antioxidant activity of the both leaves and bark extract was studied using FRAP and DPPH method. The in vitro anti-inflammatory activity and phytochemical characterization were carried using known protocols. The various phytochemical components such as total phenolics and flavonoids were determined. The plant Ceropegia rollae also contains tannis and ascorbic acid. This is related to the antioxidant activity of the plant Ceropegia rollae extract. The leaves shows good antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity as compared to the bark. These can be used as natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents.
