RESUMO
Seaweeds are marine macroscopic algae which form an important components of marine living organism. This study was carried out to detect presence of some secondary metabolites that they have the secondary metabolites like phytochemicals have been extensively investigated as a source of medicinal agents seaweeds are becoming a viable source of biologically active composites with a hopeful application as nutraceuticals, functional food components. Natural products from marine algae have attracted the attention of biologists and chemists the world over for the last five year The aim of present study was to perform the qualitative and quantitative phytochemical analysis of redMETHODS: seaweed Halymiya dilate and Liagora albicance. DPPH Radical scavenging and cytotoxicity screening were carried out in methanol extract of 2 macro algae as per standard methods with few modifications Among the 2RESULT seaweeds, H.dilata showed the maximum number of active constituents in the methanol extract Likewise. H.dilata showed maximum number of compounds in petroleum ether and methanol. L.albicance showed the maximum number of compounds acetone and methanol. The methonal extract showed the highest radical scavenging activity(IC 50 VALUE ) was methanol extract when tested by DPPH in both H.dilata and L.albicance
