초록

In present study, total phenolic content of crude extract and antiradical activity of crude extract and different solvent fractions of Azadirachta indica were evaluated. Crude extract and most of the polar fractions showed higher radical scavenging activity. Among the crude extract and nine different fractions, the aqueous/methanol (3:1) fraction showed the highest activity.
