CLAQE, C. leptophloeos aqueous extract; CLMEE, Methanolic extract; CLCLE, Cloroform extract; CLCHE, Cyclohexane extract and CLAEE, Ethyl acetate extract. Phenolic contents are expressed in mg/g of Gallic Acid Equivalent (GAE). Data were obtained from three independent experiments, each performed in triplicates (n = 3) and represented as mean ± SD and p-value < 0.05.
