Abstract

Phenolics as metabolites possess antioxidant activity and can protect the body from damage caused by free radical induced oxidative stress. Investigation of total phenolics from selected fractions of Elaeagnus multiflora was carried out by Folin-Ciocalteau method. The phenolic contents of fruit extract in methanol, n-hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions of E. multiflora were 70 ± 23.1, 15 ± 2.3, 20 ± 2.3 and 25 ± 2.3, respectively. In leaves methanol, n-hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions showed 55 ± 11.5, 40 ± 4.0, 46 ± 3.1 and 205 ± 3.1, respectively while in young branches total phenolics were 67 ± 22.5 (methanol), 40 ± 2.3 (n-hexane), 30 ± 5.6 (chloroform) and 36 ± 3.0 (ethyl acetate). These results suggested that E. multiflora is a good candidate as a natural anti-oxidant.
