Abstract
In the present study, the polyphenol and oxidative activities of the pet are considered. Ether, alkaline, benzoic acid and gasoline extracts of Betela mastica raf. leaves have been measured and studied to determine the number of different phytoconstituents present in the crop, which allows it exceptional for its use by conventional practices. Polyphenol analysis of all samples (PET, ether, alkaline, potassium carbonate and gasoline) revealed the existence of cannabinoids, hormones, phenolic compounds, citric acid, saponins, sugars, enzymes, fatty acids and inorganic salts. More study concluded fat soluble vitamin activity in vitro, accompanied by the Fenton process. Highest activity was shown in the ethnolic extraction accompanied by Peracetic acid extract, electrolyte extract and Pet.
Keywords: Piper betle, ethanolic and ethyl acetate extracts, phytochemical constituents, antioxidant activity.
