ABSTRACT
In the present study, two plant species of the family Asteraceae were
selected for an evaluation of their phytochemical screening, antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory properties. Phytochemical alkaloids, phenols, protein,
flavonoids, quinines, tannins, and terpenoids are present in the aqua
methanol and aqua acetone extract (s) of Cirsium arvense (L) Cronquist and
Erigeron bonariensis. The selected plant species exhibit anti-inflammatory
properties in both solvents. The enzymatic antioxidant property of selected
plant species was evaluated by superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase
(POD), and catalase (CAT). E. bonariensis shows (20.05±0.02) superoxide
dismutase activity which is moreover equal to C. arvense (19.47±0.31).
POD and CAT activities of C. arvense (109.35±0.69 and 41.48±0.13) and
E. bonariensis 105.91±1.53 and 39.63±0.035 respectively, the POD activity
of C. arvense is slightly higher than E. bonariensis but CAT activity again
higher in E. bonariensis same as SOD.
