Plants are the basis for the development of modern drugs. Medicinal plants are rich sources of pharmacological active molecules. This study investigated the antioxidant activity, GC-MS analysis of ethanolic extract of Mukia maderaspatana (EEMM). DPPH assay, Superoxide radical scavenging, reducing power assay were used for determination of free radical scavenging activity of extracts, GC-MS analysis is a unique technique for analysis and measures the quantity of organic volatile, medicinally active compounds which is present in medicinal plants. The results obtained showed that the extract has an excellent antioxidant activities in DPPH (IC 50 =100.81 ± 1.53 µg/ml), Superoxide (IC50 = 146.76 ± 1.54 µg/ml), Nitric oxide radical scavenging assay (IC 50 = 153.76 ± 3.82 µg/ml), GC-MS analysis showed that the presence of many medicinally active compounds.
