Phytochemical analysis, anti-oxidant and anti-microbial activity of <em>Acalypha indica</em> leaf extracts in different organic solvents

Abstract

A b s t r a c tThe herb properties which include anti anti was indica petroleum ether. Fresh leaves of the plant were collected and shade milled to obtain powder. Powder was subjected to soxhlet extraction using solvents and extracts were successively obtained. Phytochemical analysis was conducted following standard methods. Phytochemical analysis showed the presen Saponins, Flavanoids and Amino acids. Leaf extract of methonal have shown the highest anti oxidation capacity than hexane, ethyl acetate and petroleum ether. Anti been performed on microbes like sps.results provide evidence that antimicrobial and antioxid analysis for finding potent medicines for diseases.

“…All the plant leaves were dried in the shade to evaporate all the water molecules, and after that, dried plant leaves were grinding. With the help of mortar and pestle, leaves of Carica papaya (Papaya), Citrus limon (Lemon), Psidium guajava (Guava) and Acalypha indica (Indian nettle) ground well into fine powder form and stored in polythene bags with proper labeling 31 .…”

Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles by Acalypha indica Plant Extract and Their Approach towards Multifunctional Applications

“…The isolated phytochemical content from the plant is flavonoids, anthraquinones, phospholipids, alkaloids, phenols, saponins, terpenoids, cardia Tannins, flavones, the cyanogenic glucoside acalyphin acalyphamide, aurantiamide, succinimide, and the pyranoquinolinone alkaloid flindersin. According to the review of earlier studies, Acalypha indica plants have a vast range of pharmacological activities such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, analgesic, antiinflammatory, hepatoprotective, antiulcer, antidiabetic, anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), immunomodulator, insect repellent and larvicidal, antifungal, depressant, anticonvulsant and neuropharmacological, platelet aggregation inhibitors, antidiarrheal, antimutagenic, and anticancer [28,29]. The engineered AgNPs have found application in diverse areas such as disease diagnosis, nucleic acid detection, agriculture, food industries, biosensors, optics, and electrochemistry [30].…”
