The aimof this work is to estimate the total phenolic and flavonoid content of alcoholic extract of seeds of Psoralea corylifolia. The total phenolic content was determined using the Folin- Ciocalteau assay. The total flavanoid content was also measured spectrophotometrically by using aluminum chloride colorimetric assy. The Total Phenolic Content &Total Flavanoid Content in the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia was found to be 149.2981µg/mg of extract & 132.3479 µg/mg of extract respectively.
