Antioxidant activity of plants methanolic extracts from UiTM Pahang Forest Reserve / Liliwirianis Nawi …[et al.]
Antioxidants are important substances that help to reduce the formation of free radicals that give deleterious effect to human body. This study was conducted to determine in vitro evaluation on the antioxidant activity of Melastoma sp. (Senduduk putih), Thottea corymbosa (Serapat), Thottea grandiflo...
