Abstract

The present study investigates about the antioxidant activity of red algae Gracilaria adults and Hypnea valentine by radical scavenging method, DPPH assay. The ethyl acetate and ethanolic extracts of the two red algae were prepared to keep BHT as a standard Hypnea valentine showed the highest antioxidant activity compared to Gracilaria adults. The absorbance was recorded at 517 nm.
