Online published on 18 May, 2019. Abstract The uses of ethno medicinal plants for human healthcare still remain the most widely used medication system in developing and least developed countries. A large number of bioactive compounds exist in various species of plants. Novel anticancer agents are being sought from traditional medicines. From our previous study, the antioxidant effect of roasted Spanish variety of groundnut was found to be effective compared to runner variety of groundnut. Hence the present study focuses on in vitro and in vivo analysis of phytoconstituents, biomolecules, minerals, antioxidants and enzymes in roasted Spanish variety of groundnut and compared with raw Spanish variety of groundnut. This study reveals that roasting improvise the biochemical activities of groundnut. Top Keywords Biomolecules, antioxidants, enzymes, ethano medicinal plants, anti-inflammatory. Top |
