Total phenolic and, flavonoid contents were determined and the antioxidant potential was estimated by four assay&amp;rsquo;s viz. DPPH radical scavenging assay, ferric reducing power assay, total antioxidant capacity and 2-deoxy ribose assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The species is rich in three phenolic acids, among which gallic acid (1708 ug/g) is in maximum concentration followed by caeffic acid (437 ug/g) and protocateuchic acid (337.7 ug/g). Total phenolic content was higher (10.5 mg/g) than flavonoid content (3.78 mg/g) and TAC was found at 0.137 mg/g ASE (ascorbic acid equivalent). IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of &lt;em&gt;D. palmatus &lt;/em&gt;extract for scavenging of hydroxyl radical by 2-deoxy ribose and DPPH was at concentration of 125.61 &amp;plusmn; 0.834 (&amp;mu;g/ml) and 353.71 &amp;plusmn; 0.663 (&amp;mu;g/ml) respectively. &lt;em&gt;In vitro &lt;/em&gt;antidiabetiv potential, via inhibition of alpha amylase enzyme through starch iodine and 3,5- DNS assay reveals the IC&lt;sub&gt;50&lt;/sub&gt; of extract at 146.31 &amp;plusmn; 0.415 ug/ml and 286.23 &amp;plusmn; 0.671 ug/ ml respectively. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;The species (aerial part) was rich in phenolic acid with potential bioactivity, identified leads will be useful&amp;nbsp;in further chemical characterization and pharmacological validation.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">483</style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ankita Misra, Pushpendra Kumar Shukla, Bhanu Kumar, Abhishek Niranjan, AKS Rawat and Sharad Srivastava&lt;sup&gt;* &lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
