Abstract
The present study aimed for phytoactives screening and assessment of antioxidant potential aqueous extract of thorn parts of Euphorbia milii. Thorn parts of E. milii were selected for phytoactives screening and subjected to successive solvent extraction by continuous hot soxhlet extraction with distilled water. The major phytochemicals found in aqueous extract of thorn parts of E. milii were, alkaloids, anthocyanin & betacyanin, flavonoids, phlobatannins, steroids, tannins, and terpenoids. The IC50 values exhibited by aqueous extracts of thorn parts of E. milii was 211.38 µg/mL. In conclusion, study results showed that water concentrate of thorn parts of E. milii has vide variety of phytoactives. Antioxidant potential of watery concentrates of thorn parts of E. milii deduced that E. milii could be taken advantage of as imminent medication specialist of people drugs.
