Abstract
The present stody was aimed to investigate the
antimicrobial activity and characterization of bioactive constituents from
flower extract of Cassia jovanica Linn. Plant. Antimicrobial activity
was tested against human pathogens in six different solvents using the well
diffusion method. These, ethyl acetate and ethanolic crude extracts showed
effective antimicrobial activity against all the tested humson pathogens. The
bioactive constituents of the flower extract revealed the presence of some
biologically active substances like (alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids,
glycosides, phenolic compounds, phlobatannins, triterpenoides, saponins,
volatile oils and tannins). In the GC-MS analysis, 14 bionctive compounds were
identified. Present study concludes that the different extracts of Cassia
javanica Linn. Flower contain a broad spectrum of bioactive compounds and
also exhibit antimicrobial activity against all the tested human pathogens,
therefore, Cassia javanica. Linn. Flowers can be tapped source to discover
the natural bioactive products that may serve as leads in the developnsents of
novel therapeutic drugs.
