“…The plant has been screened for antiinflammatory (Gokhale et al, 2002), immunomodulatory (Gokhale et al, 2003), and hepatoprotective (Habbu et al, 2008), antimicrobial and antitubercular (Habbu et al, 2009) and nootropic (Habbu et al, 2009) activities. Phytochemical investigations on the roots of A. speciosa have resulted in the isolation of a range of biologically active substances like Flavonoid sulphates (Petra et al, 1999), Stigmasteryl p-hydroxycinnamate and a Coumarin (Srivastava and Shukla, 1998) and many phenolic compounds. We reported the isolation, characterization, antimicrobial antituberculosis efficacy of flavanoid suphates and other fractions of A. speciosa (Habbu et al, 2009).…”
