The application of statistical measures to compare the speed of response of olive tree leaves in Zliten to tests for the detection of phenols and flavonoids

Abstract

Through the research, the response speed for the detection of phenols and total flavonoids in olive leaves collected from the municipality  Zliten (Abu Jreida, Souk Al-Thulatha, Majer, Adwaw, and Izdo regions) , where phenols were detected in a dry olive leaves using the Ferric Chloride test (Fe〖Cl〗_3) for detection About phenols once with the aqueous extract and again with the alcoholic extract, where the response of the olive samples to the tests was classified into one of the following categories (slow response, medium response, fast response), The response speed of olive samples was also studied to test the detection of flavonoids in dried olive leaves, where the potassium hydroxide test(KOH)  was used to detect flavonoids once with the aqueous extract and again with theextract alcoholic , where the response of the olive samples to the tests was classified into one of the following categories (slow response, medium response, fast response) Then, the researcher tested whether there were differences in the average response speed of the olive samples under study to tests for the detection of phenols and flavonoids, where the extract (aqueous, alcoholic) used was taken into account each time. The results of the analysis of the Ferric Chloride test (Fe〖Cl〗_3) for detection About phenols The response of olive trees is at a high level of speed , while that The response of olive trees is at a medium level of speed when the potassium hydroxide test(KOH) is performed to detect flavonoids.
