The present study examined the antioxidant activity of the ethanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla. The ethanolic extract of egg mass showed the total antioxidant activity of 13.89 - 53.71% at 50 – 250 µg/ml concentration. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of ethanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla recorded 15.03 - 49.58% at 50 – 250 µg/ml concentration. The ABTS radical scavenging activity of ethanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla showed 18.01 - 62.59% at 50 – 250 µg/ml concentration. The inhibitory effect of ethanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla on superoxide radical damage was 20.61 - 65.02% at 50 – 250 µg/ml respectively. The effect of ethanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla on oxidative damage induced by hydroxyl radical at different concentrations 50 – 250 µg/ml were found between 19.35 and 58.91% respectively . Above results of the antioxidant activity of the ethanolic extract from the egg mass of C. catla can helpful to human health and may preventive effect in some diseases.
