Active phytochemicals properties in Tagetes species. Bioactive phenolic compounds and act as a powerful antioxidant, known to found in medicinal and ornamental plants like Tagetes, belong to Asteraceae family. The observed TPC results in the range of (highest to lowest) alcoholic and water extract of Disco yellow variety (86.33mg & 78.65 mgGAE), Honey comb variety (82.00 mg &77.00mg GAE), Butter Scotch (79.65 mg & 71.65 mg GAE), Aurora orange (72.12 mg & 68.67 mg GAE).TFC was observed in the range of (highest to lowest)alcoholic and water extract of Disco yellow variety (38.0 mg & 23.53 mg QE), Honey comb variety (35.67 mg &20.66 mg QE), Aurora orange (33.23 mg & 19.67mgQE), Butter Scotch (31.46 mg &17.89 mg QE).In a more elaborate way, it could be more understandable by regression analysis demonstrate the water extracted phenolic compounds contribute maximum value i.e. about 95% (at ð‘ƒ< 0.05) while methanolic extracted phenolics contribute about 92% (atð‘ƒ< 0.05) of radical scavenging properties. All the experiments were conducted in triplicate manner for the determination of total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant properties using DPPH assay. All the values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD). No Significant differences were observed in the value of correlation coefficient to define the efficacy of water and methanolic extract. The purpose of the current study is to investigate the antioxidant activity of Tagetes patula leaves.
