Abstract

Moringa oleifera is one of the 14 species of family Moringaceae and is commonly known as 'Drumstick tree' or the 'horse radish tree'. It is a medicinal Indian herb which is rich in secondary metabolites such as terpenoids, flavonoids, phenolics etc. It has the following properties such as-antitumor, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antihypertensive, cholesterol lowering, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-diabetic, hepatoprotective, antibacterial and antifungal activities. Despite of above mentioned application, this study showcases the antioxidant and hemolytic activities. Leaves from three different region exhibit antioxidant activity -DPPH and MDA assays. The results obtained for antioxidant property (DPPH) was found to be higher in the samples collected from Bengaluru and for the MDA Assay we obtained higher values in the Rajasthan sample. Furthermore, leaf extracts are non-toxic to RBC in lower concentration.
