S.No | Plant extracts/ chemicals (all 400 μg/mL) |
Total phenolic contents (amg of GAE/g of extract) |
Total flavonoid content (bmg QE/g dried extract) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Methanol | 2.328 ± 0.003** | 5.00 ± 0.04** |
2 | Ethanol | 1.769 ± 0.001** | 3.73 ± 0.08** |
3 | Acetone | 1.535 ± 0.004** | 3.31 ± 0.06** |
