Abstract

The present  study investigates  the in-vitro radical scavenging  activity of different  extracts obtained from the dry arial parts of Pulsatilla Nigricans by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl  hydrazyl (DPPH) and nitric oxide  assay.   The  methanolic   extract  of   Pulsatilla   Nigricans   showed   signifcant   DPPH  radical scavenging activity at IC50  of 25.67 μg/ml and low radical scavenging activity at 747.15 μg/ml with methanolic extract in nitric oxide assay.
