Popis: Background: In-vivo antioxidants potentials of Sphenocentrum jollyanum had been reported in disease conditions. However, there is a paucity of information on its invitro capacity compared to standard antioxidants. The objective of the study is to screen ethanol root extract of Sphenocentrum jollyanum (SJE) for its invitro antioxidants capacity and phytochemical components.Methodology: Antioxidant capacity and phytochemical content were determined using ABTS DPPH and GC-MS techniquesResults: Free radicals were scavenged by SJE in all the In vitro methods used in a concentration dependent manner. Howbeit, the free radical scavenging ability and reducing power potentials of SJE were significantly lower (p
