Highest activity was found significantly (p≤0.05) in T2 (1.09 ± 0.01) while the lowest
radical scavenging activity was observed in T3 (0.36 ± 0.02) t1 t2 t3 and t4 have
radical scavenging activities 0.36 , 1.09 , 0.43 and 0.6 respectively Beevi et. Al
(2012)
Observed the same radical scavenging activity in a alcoholic extract of R. sativum
leaves on the other hand, jamuna et. Al (2015) found that R. sativus , when extracted
with methanol shown the higher antioxidant activity
Moreover, findings of z.couri et. Al (2021) were identically correlated to the results of
current studies.
Such higher antioxidant activity might be attributed to the presence of polyphenol are a
diverse class of plant compounds and responsible for the activities such as antioxidant
antimicrobial antiviral and many other activities

FRAP 2
In a actively eugenis et. Al (2017) found that radish has more potential to quench the
free radicals as compared to you beet sweet potato and carrot.
Antioxidant is strongly correlated with the reducing capability of plant compound such as
polyphenols. Hence it can be concluded that extracts has ability to break the free radical
chains by donating electrons (beevi et. Al 2010)

FRAP 1
Statistical results regarding the FRAP test are summarized in table
FRAP values of different parts of R. sativus extracts are shown in table.
Ferric reducing antioxidant potential is a test to determine the antioxidant potential of
plant materials. This test is based on the electron transfer system to determine the
reducing power of plant extracts. Plant extracts have the ability to donate electron
In order to quonch free radical in biological system.
T1 t2 t3 and t4 ferric reducing capabilities were 1.99 3.05 1.75 and 2.4 respectively
Highest reducing power was noted in t2 (3.95) while the lowest reducing power was
depicted in T3.
