Antioxidant and antiproliferative activities of the n-butanol extract of Centaurea maroccana Ball aerial parts
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the total phenolic contents, antioxidant and anti-proliferative activities of the n-BuOH extract of Centaurea maroccana (BECM). The total phenolic and flavonoid of the butanolic extract of the plant were assessed by using Folin-Ciocalteau and aluminium chl...
