dc.description.abstractOrange fruit peels have been utilized for long as an active ingredient in most of the traditional medicines. Various solvents like methanol, ethanol, dichloromethane, acetone hexane and ethyl acetate were used for the extraction of orange peel. In this study, the methanol extracts were subjected to Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS) for chemical characterization andthe aqueous extract was assessed for free radical scavenging ability against 2, 2 – diphenyl – 1 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) for its antioxidant property. Characterization of orange peel indicated the presence of compounds like catechol, dimethoxy phenol, cyclohexane, coumarin, acetic acid, stigmasterol, sitosterol and vitamin E which are responsible for its antioxidant property. The aqueous extract of orange peel powder exhibited an antioxidant activity of 71.2 per cent.en_US
