摘要：Delphinium denudatum Wall is an annual herb known for its medicinal property from the earlier literature. Although manyworks have attributed to screen the medicinal property of this plant rhizome, but the role of different solvents in extractionand screening of the active ingredients present in the rhizome of the plant remain unexplored. Total rhizome extracts of D.denudatum (rhizome) was taken for the present investigation displayed the presence of various bioactive compounds. Thebioactive compounds of the selected rhizome have been screened using different solvents such as ethanol, petroleum ether,ethyl acetate and chloroform. From this result, it has concluded that the D. denudatum ethanolic extract have shown topossess maximum amount of alkaloids, steroids, terpenoids and flavonoids, where as petroleum ether, ethyl acetate andchloroform are comparatively less. The ethanolic extract of D. denudatum was having free radical (DPPH, and SOS)inhibitors acting as primary antioxidants whereas ethyl acetate had hydroxyl radical scavenger as a primary antioxidant thanother three extracts.
