Antioxidant Activity
The antioxidant activity of leaf extracts was evaluated by measuring 
1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH
•
) radical scavenging activity, 
2,2'-azino-bis-(3- ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS
•+
) 
radical cation scavenging capacity and ferric ion reducing power and 
values ranged between 1.89–2.12, 6.12–9.89 and 0.56–0.97 mM 
Trolox equivalent/g of dried leaves, respectively. The investigated 
features reveal good antioxidant attributes significantly[25]. 
In an another study radical scavenging activity of different parts of 
mulberry (Morus alba L.) were determined Methanol extracts and 
their fractions dose dependently increased radical scavenging 
activity of mulberry branches, roots and leaves (more than 70%).
Study shows that mulberry fruits exhibited the highest radical 
scavenging activity
