Cleome gynandra a well known medicinal plant with known anti-inflammatory activity was studied for its antioxidant property and preliminary detection of compounds responsible for its antioxidant potential. Non polar and polar extracts of Cleome gynandra was subjected to various preliminary phytochemical screening for the detection of phytochemicals. Various in vitro antioxidant method like DPPH radical scavenging assay, Reducing power assay and Metal chelation assay was conducted to evaluate its antioxidant potential and active principle responsible for antioxidant activity was screened using Thin Layer Chromatography. Preliminary phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of flavonoid, alkaloid, terpenoid, steroid and tannins in different solvents. Both methanol and acetone extract proved the best antioxidant activity when compared with other extracts. And Thin Layer Chromatography guided detection showed that active component of the methanol extract was found to be flavonoid and needs further compound identification. Thus it could serve as antioxidant drug in future.
