Valorization of the Biological Activity of Euphorbia hirta

Abstract

Aim: The main objective of our study it to valorization of the biological activity of euphorbia hirtathe. Material & Methods: Phytochemical analysis of Euphorbia hirta revealed a variety of compounds, including saponins, polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, coumarins, and cardiac glycosides. Quantitative measurements indicated that the methanolic extract from the roots is particularly rich in phenolic compounds, with a concentration of 128.45 ?? 5.1 micrograms GAE/mg of extract. Conversely, the methanol extract from the stems had the highest flavonoid content, at 36.11 ?? 0.45 micrograms QE/mg of extract. Result: The antioxidant capacity of the polar extracts was evaluated using the DPPH method, showing that the root methanol extract exhibited significant antioxidant activity, with an IC50 value of 07.04 ?? 0.14 micrograms/ml. Conlusion: Additionally, a correlation was noted between the levels of polyphenols and the concentration of phenolic compounds present.
