Description
Summary:The present study aimed to investigate the morphological features, phytochemicals, phenolic content, and antioxidant activity in different parts of Lagotis cashmeriana. The morphological features depicted that the plant is 7.9 ± 1.699 cm tall with flowers arranged into an inflorescence. The length of inflorescence was 2.597 ± 0.796 cm. Basal leaves were measuring 2.99 ± 0.58 cm. Besides, the number of basal leaves and inflorescence ranged from 4-9 and 0-4 respectively. Methanolic extract of leaves displayed the highest phenolic content (169.5 µg/mL of GAE), followed by inflorescences (157 µg/mL of GAE). Among aqueous extracts, leaves displayed the highest phenolic content (88.38 µg/mL of GAE), followed by inflorescences (76.95 µg/mL of GAE). The results of antioxidant study revealed that the methanolic extracts of leaves possessed the highest antioxidant potential (180.76 µg/mL of AAE). Interestingly, for each extract, there was a positive correlation between the phenolic content and the antioxidant activity.
