Abstract

The ethanol extracts of leaf peel and gel of Aloe spp. were analyzed for their total phenolic and flavonoid profiles and screened for their antioxidant activity. Peel extract demonstrated highest phenolic (7.99 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid content (9.17 mg QE/g). DPPH and ABTS assays revealed low antioxidant activity in all extracts compared to standards.
