Study the Bioactive Compounds of Nyctanthes Arbor-Tristis and Curcuma Caesia Leaves and its Antimicrobial Activity against Pathogens | Original Article

ABSTRACT:

Medicinal plants contain bioactive compounds that are used to cure various human diseases. There are antibacterial activities in medicinal plants. The present study consists of two different medicinal plants, Nyctanthes arbor-tristis and Curcuma caesia are available locally in the Bhilai region of Chhattisgarh, India. The leaves of selected medicinal plants were washed, dried in air and then used. To find phytochemical components in plants, chloroform was used from leaf samples for phytochemical analysis. The main objective of the research work was to verify the presence or absence of phytochemical components in all selected medicinal plants. The results of phytochemical analysis of these medicinal plants have shown that terpinoids, flotanates, reducing sugar, flavonoids and alkaloids were present in the medicinal plants mentioned above. The phytochemical analysis of plants is very important commercially and there is great interest in pharmaceutical companies to produce new medicines to cure various diseases. An additional comparative study of bioactive compounds present in both plant extracts showed their possible medicinal use in the treatment of diseases in humans.
