Correa) is an attractive and characteristically sweet aroma fruit, native to Southeast Asia, known to be a good source of natural antioxidants and bioactive compounds. To identify the potential sources of these bioactive compounds, extracts of Aegle Marmelos fruit were assessed with regard to their total phenolics and flavanoid content. Antioxidant activity of extracts in different solvent systems (methanol, ethanol and distilled water). Was also studied, in methanol extract the phenolics and flavanoide content of Aegle Marmelos fruit was 81.46 mg tannic acid equivalents /g fresh weight (TAE/g fw) and 21.68 mg rutin equivalents/ g fresh weight (RE/g fw) respectively. The effect of different solvents on the antioxidant activity of Aegle Marmelos was measured, methanol extract exhibited highest free radical scavenging activity (2.256 ± 0.14%), Ferric reducing 0.026± 0.12 Mg/AAE/g fw and ferrous ion chelating (59.60 ± 0.09 %) activities. The study was ex...
