Present study was undertaken to evaluate eight enzymatic antioxidants in Citrus karna. Those were glutathione-S-transferase, peroxidase, glutathione peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, glutathione reductase, superoxide dismutase, guaiacol peroxidase and catalase. Seeds were taken for assaying all the above antioxidants and found peroxidase enzyme had highest specific activity (8.182U/mg).
