Abstract
Morettia phillaeana (Del.) DC. (Brassicaceae) is one of the two Morettia species which occur in Sudan. It used in folkloric medicine to cure some diseases. Aqueous extract was used to evaluate the total proteins, total phenol and flavonoids content and in vitro antioxidant activity using DPPH and ABTS models. The result indicated that the aerial parts contain 17.35 + 0.31 mg/100g proteins, 5.636+0.21 mg/g phenol and 2.713+0.11 mg/g flavonoids. High antioxidant activity was shown for both DPPH and ABTS, they were revealed concentrations equal to 78.85 and 88.66% respectively.
