This study explores the antioxidative potential of Dalbergia sissoo, commonly known as Indian Rosewood, focusing on the methanol extracts from its foliage leaves. Findings revealed high levels of phenolic compounds, correlating with strong antioxidant properties evidenced by Total phenolic content as 34.95±1.26 mgGAE/g and low IC50 value in the DPPH assay (104.04±1.5µg/ml), suggesting higher antioxidant capacity. The FRAP assay (2577.5±3.2 µM) further supported these results by demonstrating the effective free radical scavenging activity of extract. These outcomes affirm the substantial antioxidative potential of D. sissoo leaves, indicating their promise for therapeutic applications, particularly in combating oxidative stress-related disorders..
