Abstract
Methanolic extract of dried leaves of Capsicum annum L. was studied for its phytochemical properties. The extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, steroids, tannins, phenolic compounds, flavanoids, saponins and proteins. The total phenolic content was evaluated for the extract and it was further subjected to in- vitro anti-oxidant activity. The results were found to be significant.
