Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation Leaf extracts contained varying amounts of tannins, phenols and alkaloids.
- Observation Leaf extracts contained varying amounts of flavonoids, protein and carbohydrates.
- Observation IC50 and EC50 values also indicated Senna alata had the best antioxidant potential and Euphorbia hirta exceeded Dracaena mannii.
- Recommendation The authors suggest further investigation of Senna alata leaves for biological applications against diseases linked to oxidative stress.
