Assessment of Antioxidant and Cytotoxicity Activities of Saponin and Crude Extracts of Chlorophytum borivilianum

Table 1

Free radical scavenging activity of crude and total saponin extract from mother plant tubers of C. borivilianum.

Sample	Antioxidant activity
	IC50 (μg mL^−1)	AEAC (mg AA/100 g)^1,2
Total saponin	440 ± 49^b	1062 ± 31^b
Crude extract	181 ± 34^a	2578 ± 111^a

Results are expressed as means ± SD (𝑛=3). For each column, values followed by different letter (a-b) are statistically significant (𝑃<0.05) as determined using ANOVA.
¹IC₅₀ of AA = 4.5 μg mL⁻¹.
²100 g fresh plant materials.
