Abstract
Gallic acid and methyl gallate have been identified as antioxidant constituents of stem galls of Quercus infectoria through bioactivity guided fractionation. All the antioxidant fractions were tested for the activity in various mechanisms, like superoxide, DPPH and hydroxyl radical assays. The activities are corroborative to gallic acid and methyl gallate content of corresponding fractions. Quercus infectoria extracts also showed moderate activity in brine shrimp lethality assay.
