Impact of nutritional paradigm on antioxidant activity of Coriandrum sativum and Calendula officinalis

Abstract

newline The overall results obtained by the observation and experiments recorded during the entire research conducted on both the plants Coriandrum sativum and Calendula officinalis gives an evidence of the impact of vermicompost in promoting germination, increasing plant height, increasing the probability emergence of leaves, increasing biomass content with increased root mass area. newlineMoreover, with the biochemical experimental analysis it has been found that both the plants, Coriandrum sativum and Calendula officinalis is having the good concentrates of phenolic compounds or having antioxidant activity. It is also evident that using vermicompost enhances the phenolics content (protein content) of the plant with increased antioxidant activity in treated plants as compared to the control or untreated plants.
