Phenolics, proteins and antioxidant activity profiling of A. hirsutus seeds were carried out using different aqueous solvents such as 50mM acetate buffer pH 5.0, 50mM phosphate buffer pH 7.0, 50mM tris buffer pH 8.5, 0.1M sodium hydroxide (NaOH), 0.1M sodium chloride (NaCl), water and organic solvents like ethanol, methanol and acetone. Among the aqueous solvents used, 0.1M sodium hydroxide extract showed maximum amount of proteins, phenolics and antioxidants extraction. Thus different concentrations of NaOH (0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5) were chosen for the extraction, of which 0.1M NaOH showed greater extraction efficiency. Among the organic solvent, ethanol showed maximum phytochemical extraction. Thus different concentration of ethanol (20%, 40%, 60%, and 80%) in combination with 0.1M NaOH was used. Among the various solvents and the concentrations chosen, 40% ethanol in 0.1M NaOH showed greater extractability of phenolics, proteins and antioxidants. Thus organic solvent in alkali can be considered as the efficient extraction system. Phytochemical profiling of various seed extracts was done by GC- MS analysis using hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol and water.
