Determination of total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of Alocasia Longiloba Miq. (Araceae)
Alocasia longiloba Miq belongs to Araceae family, which has the medicinal potential. The study on its antioxidant properties are important in order to know the active compounds. Currently, aroids medicinal properties are not widely known and there is lack of data regarding this species. In this stud...
