“…It is also found throughout the Tropical Africa and some parts of Oriental Asia, Australia, Yemen and Pacific islands. The herb P. zeylanica in Amrita Bindu is known for inhibitory effects against superoxide and nitric oxide production (Natarajan et al, 2006;Seo et al, 2001). Natarajan et al (2006) found antioxidant property of the plant using ABTS assay.…”

“…[5][6] In order to prevent this cellular damage, apart from body natural defense system, some herbal extracts/ oils/formulations has been proved as important antioxidant agents. [7][8][9] Several researchers have shown that aromatic and medicinal plants are sources of diverse nutrient and non nutrient molecules, many of which can cure several ailments as pain, pyrexia, hypertension, kidney stone and sunburn diseases. [10][11][12] In traditional books of Ayurveda, the eucalyptus oil has been strongly recommended for antimalarial action, antiseptic action, antispasmodic, antiviral, astringent, balsamic, decongestant, deodorant, depurative, diuretic, expectorant, febrifuge, hypoglycaemic and rubefacient stimulant action.…”

A b s t R A c t barks, roots, fruits, buds, leaves and other parts of plant are considered as source of essential aromatic oils to cure several ailments. the antioxidant property has been shown to be important in recovery from several diseases. the essential oil extracted from eucalyptus leaves was tested for phytochemical analysis and antioxidant activities. the eucalyptus oil extracted from the leaves of Eucalyptus globulus family Myrtaceae was screened for the presence of phytochemicals and their effect on 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl radical (DPPH) and Nitric oxide free radical. Phytochemical screening of the plants showed the presence of flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins and reducing sugars. Eucalyptus globulus is not having any cardiac glycosides and anthraquinones. the free radical scavenging activity of the different concentrations of the leaf oil (10, 20, 40, 60 and 80% (v/v) in DMsO) of E. globulus increased in a concentration dependent fashion. In DPPH method, the oil in 80% (v/v) concentration exhibited 79.55 ± 0.82%. In nitric oxide radical scavenging assay method, it was found that 80% (v/v) concentration exhibited 81.54 ± 0.94% inhibition. It was concluded that leaf oil is potent inhibition of free radicals.

Three Egyptian Cyperus species viz. Cyperus esculentus, C. rotundus, and C. papyrus that belong to Cyperaceae were used as food and medicines since ancient times. This study aimed to investigate the direct and indirect antioxidant properties of the selected species in two chemical assays (FRAP and DPPH) and a cell-based bioassay in hepa1c1c7 cells using t-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the inducer of cytotoxicity. Three different extracts were prepared from each Cyperus tuber. The results indicated that the 80% EtOH extract of C. papyrus was the most potent with direct antioxidant activity in both DPPH (EC 50 : 5.1 g/ml) and FRAP (FE: 48.7 g/ml) assays and a significant full cytoprotection against TBHP at 100 g/ml.
