Abstract

Introduction Medicinal plants are main sources of natural antioxidants. Natural antioxidants increase the antioxidant capacity of the plasma and reduce the risk of certain diseases such as cancer, heart diseases and stroke. Synthetic antioxidants that are commonly used in processed foods have side effects and are toxic. Therefore, there is a need for more effective, less toxic and cost effective antioxidants derived from medicinal plants. Due to the antioxidant properties of Citrullus colocynthis, optimizing the extraction of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity is important. The objective of this research was to study effect of different solvents in the extraction efficiency of phenolic and flavonoid compounds from different parts of C. colocynthis.
