Red button ginger plant edible9/7/2023 woodsonii plant and result indicated high polarity solvent (methanol and water) recovered higher bioactive compounds. ![]() ![]() In short, sequential extraction provides understanding of polarity specificity of C. Overall, methanolic extracts showed the significantly (p ≤ 0.05) highest ascorbic acid content (75.76☑.47 mg/100mL), total phenolic content (249.64☒.83 mg GAE/100g), DPPH free radical scavenging activity (78.76☐.97 %), ferric reducing antioxidant power (22.55☐.96 mg TEAC/g), superoxide anion scavenging activity (46.60☑.57 %) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity (50.35☐.96 %). Phytochemical screening showed positive presence of flavonoids (all types of extracts), terpenoids (only in methanolic extract) and tannins (except aqueous extract). woodsonii bract, at increasing polarities. ![]() Solvents of different polarities (hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol and water) were used to sequentially extract the C. The current study reports the composition, phytochemical and antioxidant properties of red button ginger (Costus woodsonii) using sequential extraction. Costus plant is considered as a medicinal plant especially in therapeutic intervention.
