Arbutus pavarii Pamp (Ericaceae) is one of the endemic species in Libya. Samples of the nonripened and ripened fruits of Arbutus pavarii Pamp. Although the biological basis of these effects
has not been well studied, traditional medicine has used the Arbutus pavarii Pampan fruit (Fam.
Ericaceae) to cure a variety of human maladies, including gastritis renal infections, cancer and
kidney diseases. Investigating the pharmacological properties and categorization of flavonoid and
phenolic components present in the Arbutus pavarii Pampan fruit portions was the aim of this
study. The cytotoxic effects, antioxidant activity, and cell viability of Arbutus pavarii Pampan
fruit were investigated. The terpenes are flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, total saponins, and
volatile components were conducted into Arbutus pavarii Pampan fruit methanolic extract (ME).
The results that obtained indicated that the phenolic content in the methanolic extract was 25.33
mg GAE/g and the total alkaloid content of the methanolic extract was 9.86 E (µg/g). The total
terpene content of the methanolic extract was 7.49 LE (mg/g). The total tannin content in the
methanolic extract was 8.99 TAE (mg/g).
