Phytochemical Screening, Determination of Total Tannin Content & Evaluation of Antioxidant & Thrombolytic Activities of Leaves Extract of Symplocos Macrophylla

Abstract

In this present study, the leaves extract of Symplocos macrophylla Wall. were subjected to a phytochemical screening, determination of total Tannin content and evaluation of Antioxidant and Thrombolytic Activity. Preliminary phytochemical screening shows the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, tannins, saponins, gums and phenols. Total tannin contents in methanol extract of Symplocos macrophylla Wall. leaves were found 0.6367 mg of QE/gm. The % of inhibition of leaves extract for DPPH test of antioxidant activity is 78.06%. and it shows that Symplocos macrophylla Wall. has some antioxidant activity. In the evaluation of thrombolytic activity, leaves extract showed 55.37% of clot lysis.
