Abstract

The study was designed to compare the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the total methanolic extracts of seven Ficus species (F. bengalensis, F. decora, F. hawaii, F. virens, F. platyphylla, F. retusa, and F. cycomorous) cultivated in Egypt. Leaves of the different Ficus species were each separately extracted with methanol, and dried under vacuum to give a syrupy consistency. All dried extracts showed a wide variation of total phenolic contents when tested by Folin–Ciocalteu method ranging from 2.507±0.715 to 7.9744±0.565mg gallic acid equivalent/g dried extract. Total flavonoid contents were evaluated using modified Aluminum chloride colourimetric method. The results were ranged from 1.8571±0.658 to 12.4643±0.366 mg rutin equivalent/g dried extract. Results of various assays were analyzed statistically by applying appropriate statistical methods.
