- Abstract
The importance of antioxidants has led many researchers to separate phenolic compounds and measure their effect on the stability of free radicals. In this study, the phenolic compounds were separated from the leaves of Cyperus rotundus and Investigation with HPLC. The Investigationby HPLC technique showed that the IMS extract contained phenolic compounds:Epigenesin, Qurestine, keampferol, catichin, Rutin, and gallic acid. After that, the antioxidant activity was studied by DPPH method and compared with standard ascorbic acid. Results showed that freeradical inhibiting was increased with increased concentration of phenolic compounds, with the highest inhibition (40.11%) and (45.51%) at concentrations (400 μg / ml) (500 μg / ml), respectively. These results show the importance of phenolic compounds in inhibiting free radicals and protecting humans from the risks of many diseases and cancer.
