Abstract
Many of the current treatments that we use to treat our various ailments are derived from plants or plant-based therapies. The herb is particularly important in traditional medicine because of its ethnomedicinal properties. Boswellia serrata, often known as Indian frankincense, is a plant extract that has been utilised in Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years. Because Boswellia serrata has a strong anti-inflammatory effect, Western medicine has verified its traditional use in the treatment of osteoarthritis, as it has with many other herbs. The goal of this study was to find out what phytochemicals were present in Boswellia serrata leaf extracts, as well as their antioxidant activities. The MeOH (85 percent) extract of Boswellia serrata leaves exhibited the highest total phenolic content and antioxidant activity, according to the findings of this study. Furthermore, the EtOAc and n-BuOH fractions (85 percent) generated from MeOH extract had a high total phenolic content and antioxidant activity. Total phenolics and antioxidants have a strong positive relationship. For further separation and identification of their chemical components, sophisticated chromatographic and spectroscopic technologies are advised due to the significant quantity of total phenolics and antioxidant capacity of EtOAc and n-BuOH fractions. The leaf of Boswellia serrata is a great source of natural antioxidants, according to this study. Furthermore, overall phenolic content and antioxidant activity have a close association.
