Determination of total phenolic, flavonoid content and free radical scavenging activities of common herbs and spices.

Antioxidants present in herbs and spices could be an effective tool to prevent the non-communicable diseases like cancer, diabetes and myocardial infarction as they have the capacity to stabilize the free radicals which are one of the causative factors of these diseases. This study aims to quant...
