dc.description.abstractSolanum surattense is phenotypically highly polymorphic species and extensively used traditionally by the tribal people as anthelmintic, diuretic, antiarrhythmic, hypotensive, expectorant and carminative. The present study was assessed to evaluate the in vitro antioxidant activity in the leaves and roots o f Solanum surattense. The enzymic antioxidants such as catalase (CAT) superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione S-transferase (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and non enzymic antioxidants (ascorbic acid, a-tocopherol, reduced glutathione, flavonoids and carotenoids) were found to be present. The free radical scavenging activity such as inhibition o f DPPH radical, in vitro lipid peroxidation, inhibition of superoxide generation and nitric oxide generation and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity o f different extracts of Solanum surattense were also assessed. The results obtained in the present study indicated that the Solanum surattense might be a good source o f natural antioxidant.en_US
