Extraction of bioactive compounds from Psidium guajava and their application in dentistry

Abstract: Guava is considered as poor man's apple rich in phytochemicals with medicinal value and hence it is highly consumed. Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) analysis of guava leaf extract revealed the presence of various bioactive compounds with antimicrobial, antioxidant, anticancer, and antitumor properties. Hence, it is used in tooth paste formulations along with other ingredients such as Acacia arabica gum powder, stevia herb powder, sea salt, extra virgin coconut oil, peppermint oil in the present st… Show more

“…Lignocellulosics are considered among the most promising alternatives to fossil resources ( Keegan et al, 2013 ; Shaheena et al, 2019 ), as they are generated from available atmospheric CO 2 , water, and sunlight through biological photosynthesis. They are sustainable sources of organic carbon and account for excess of 90% of worldwide plant biomass, corresponding to annual biomass of approximately 200 × 10 9 tons ( Kuhad and Singh, 1993 ).…”

“…It is rich in phenolics, flavonoids, triterpenoids, tannins, vitamins, essential oils and sesquiterpene alcohols (Altemimi et al 2017 ; Singh et al 2019 ). Guava leaves mainly constitute rutin, naringenin, gallic acid, catechin, epicatechin, kaempferol, isoflavonoids, and flavonoids such as quercetin and guaijaverin that are well known for their antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions (Gutiérrez-Grijalva et al 2018 ; Shaheena et al 2019 ). Due to the copious benefits, guava is cultivated worldwide where, India stands in the first position with the production of 40,54,000 million tons (MT) from 2,65,000 hectares (ha) in the year 2017–18 (Horticultural Statistics at a Glance 2018 ).…”
