500 mg of leaves and roots of plants from all three locations were crushed using liquid nitrogen. Three different leaf positions viz., top, middle and bottom, were used for all the studies. Extracts were prepared using fine powder with 10 mL of 80% methanol at 40°C by continuous stirring for 8 h. This was repeated thrice; extracts were pooled, filtered, and dried using rotary vacuum concentrator and lyophilizer. The lyophilized extracts were finally dissolved in methanol and diluted for various working concentrations. Extracts in equal concentration (500 µg) was used for each sample in all the antioxidant assays.
