The aim of this study was to evaluate the phytogenic chemical compounds from the prepared herbal extracts. Screening of alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, carbohydrate and saponin from quantitative and qualitative experiments was performed by using standard methods. Result showed the presence of alkaloid, tannin, saponin, flavonoid, carbohydrate and glycoside in both the studied herbal plants. In Psidium guajava, tannin and alkaloid were found more in the acetone extracts while in A.indica carbohydrate and glycoside were found more in the hydromethanolic extract. Flavanoid and glycoside were present in more quantities in A.indica whereas saponin, tannin, carbohydrate and alkaloid were present in high concentration in P.guajava. The results are suggestive that leaf extract of P.guajava showed more antioxidant potential as compared to A.indica. The leaf extracts showed the highest antioxidant potential in hydromethanolic extract followed by the acetone and aqueous extract. Total phenol and flavonoids are positively correlated with antioxidant potential.
