Quantitative Phytochemical Analysis and in vitro Study of Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Activities of Aegle marmelos Fruit with Peel and without Peel: A Comparative Evaluation

Background: Aegle marmelos is an important ethnomedicinal plant that found commonly in India and other Asian countries. The peel of the fruit hard often discarded as waste. However, a few studies have shown even has antioxidant anti-inflammatory attributes. aim this research work was to perform comparative evaluation extracts with (whole fruit) without peel. Phytochemical investigations were carried out on two extracts. Materials Methods: Folin-ciocalteu reagent method aluminum chloride colorimetric used determine total phenolic contents flavonoid contents, respectively. marmelosin content measured using high-performance thinlayer chromatography technique. activity determined in-vitro free-radical scavenging method, vitro antiinflammatory property egg albumin denaturation method. unpaired t-test (with Welch’s correction) P values. Any differences observed considered significant if < 0.05. Results: be low, while high. There no activities significantly different. Conclusion: displayed good activities. extract greater than
