Abstract

Natural products are always been the great source of therapeutic agents. The aim of the study was to analyze the physicochemical properties of Roystonea regia plant which were performed on its powder. All the results were in their official limits. Extraction was done with n-hexane, chloroform and ethanol using Soxhlet apparatus and phytochemicals of different extracts of plant were evaluated with freshly prepared reagents. Anti-oxidant activity of plant by Total Phenolic Content (TPC) method revealed that all extracts specially ethanol extract has anti-oxidant potential of 398.6 mg/g of GAE. In anti-pyretic activity Swiss albino rats containing weight 150 to 200 mg were used and results showed the dose dependent effects of all extracts from 1st hour to 5th hour after the administration of yeast. Results were analyzed by using ANOVA along with Dunnett’s test.
