summary Some wild edible vegetables are rarely been studied albeit freshly consumed by local people as ‘ulam’. Due to their perishable nature, drying is applied to extend their shelf life which causes substantial changes in phytochemicals content. Hence for collection of optimum yield of phenolics, the use of solvents of different polarities is crucial. In this study, the effect of drying (freeze-drying and oven-drying) and extractants solvents (ethanol and water) methods on phenolics and flavonoids contents as well as antioxidant activity of ten immature wild edible vegetables extracts (Acrosticum aureum, Erechtites hieraciifolia, Erechtites valerianifolia, Gnetum gnemon, Manihot esculenta, Oroxylum indicum, Phyllanthus acidus, Piper sarmentosum, Terminalia catappa and Ziziphus mauritiana) collected in Terengganu, Malaysia were investigated.
