Description 2189-2197
In the present study an attempt has
been made to make a comparative evaluation of four selected ethnomedicinally
important mangrove plants (Avicennia
marina, Avicennia alba, Acanthus ilicifolius and Phoenix paludosa) from mangrove forest along Odisha coast, India
for their antioxidant properties. 
Results showed that all the plant extracts showed strong DPPH and Nitric
oxide scavenging properties which increased with increase in the concentration
of the plant extract. Among the plants, the leaf samples are the best source of
antioxidant and P. paludosa is
comparatively rich in natural antioxidant.
