The antioxidant activity of the seed extract and fractions of Monodora tenuifolia (Fam. Annonaceae) was evaluated. The Monodora tenuifolia seed was extracted with pet ether 40-60°C to produce the crude extract. Fractionation of the extract by column chromatography using pet ether 60-80°C and diethyl-ether produced 2 fractions (F1) and (F2).
