ABSTRACT:
Many human neurodegenerative disorders are caused due to reactive oxygen species [ROS] which brings cellular damage. These oxidative cellular damages can be prevented by both exogenous and endogenous antioxidants. In the present study an attempt was made to study the antioxidant potential of aqueous extract of Aegle marmelos using DPPH [1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydroxyl] radical scavenging assay and hydrogen peroxide [H2O2] radical scavenging. Aqueous extract of Aegle marmelos leaves showed a very good antioxidant activity.
