【 摘 要 】

Background and Aim: Vigna unguiculata is an edible legume belonging to the Fabaceae family. The study aims to Evaluate Anti-oxidant and Bio Active Quantification of Vigna unguiculata Seed ExtractsMethodology: The current study aimed to prepare extracts of Vigna unguiculata with distilled water, 50% ethanol, and 70% acetone as solvents, which were then inspected for anti-oxidant activity employing DPPH (1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazy) and Nitric oxide scavenging assays with vitamin C as standard. The extracts were also subjected to bioactive quantification to determine the flavonoid and phenolic contents using Quercetin and Gallic acid as standards, respectively.Results: The results demonstrated the acetone extract of Vigna unguiculata to have greater antioxidant ability and higher bioactive concentration. Acetone extract might be used in a variety of pharmacological studies owing to its antioxidant and bioactive profile.Conclusion: The presented study conclude that acetone extract might be useful in a variety of pharmacological studies owing to its antioxidant and bioactive profile.  Background and Aim: Vigna unguiculata is an edible legume belonging to the Fabaceae family.
