Antimicrobial, Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory potential of flavonoid and terpenoid from Gymnosporia montana

Abstract

Secondary metabolites (i.e. flavonoids and terpenoids) were reported in most of the medicinal plant products and showing several immunopharmacological properties which is totally related with human healthcare. In this regard, flavonoids and terpenoids contained in leaves and fruit extract were identified and characterized through high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC). Further, immunopharmacological studies were explored and investigate its antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of flavonoids and terpenoids from the leaves and fruit extract of Gymnosporia montana. In this study, variable doses of flavonoids and terpenoids were taken into the consideration and studied various parameters. The results suggest that flavonoids and terpenoids at higher doses showed antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity as compared to control. Overall, secondary metabolites exceptionally flavonoids and terpenoids which are being scrutinized and explored its antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity leading to the outcome of new clinical drugs.
