Antioxidant activity (% inhibition) for the FTC (peroxides) assay: (A) A. implexa bark, (C) A. implexa leaves, (E) E. rossii leaves and (G) E. cupressiformis leaves; and for the TBARS assay: (B) A. implexa bark, (D) A. implexa leaves, (F) E. rossii leaves and (H) E. cupressiformis leaves. Different letters (a–e) in crude extract and fractions of same species show significant difference; different numbers (1–3) for FTC and different capital Roman numerals (I–III) in crude extracts of the different species show significant difference at p < 0.05. Results are presented as mean ± standard deviation (n = 3), and statistically significant difference was determined by one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s HSD post hoc test.
