Abstract

Background: A few studies on Butterfly Pea flowers (Clitoria ternatea L., Fabaceae) in our country, especially it was not specialized Vietnamese Pharmacopoeia V. Objectives: 1). To study the morphological and microscopic characteristics of Butterfly Pea flowers;  2). Preliminarily analyses of the phytochemical composition of Butterfly Pea flowers; 3). Quantify anthocyanin and in vitro antioxidant activity of Butterfly Pea flowers. Materials and methods: Flowers were harvested in Can Tho city. Detecting the phytochemical composition, quantifying the total anthocyanin content and in vitro antioxidant activity have been done by following the wellestablished methods. Results: Butterfly Pea flowers contained several phytochemical groups including triterpenoids, flavonoids, anthocyanoside, saponin,…. The anthocyanin content from 0.1276 % to 0.2866 %. The IC50 value of fresh butterfly pea flower is 396.635 ppm. Conclusions: Butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L., Fabacea) collected in Can Tho city has been characterized morphologically, microbiologically, qualitatively and quantitatively.
