Journal Title: Asian J of Pharm Sci & Tech - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
ABSTRACT Azadirachta indica A.Juss., has a long history of medicinal usage in the treatment of various chronic diseases.The present study was undertaken to explore the potential bioactive components present in the A. indica which have been evaluated using Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry analysis. The analysis of A.indica leaves revealed the existence of 1,2- Ethanediol, monoacetate (2.79%), 1-Tetradecanol (0.09%), Elema-1,3,11(13)-trine-12-ol (0.31%), beta-costol (0.33%), 4,7,10,13,16,19-Docosahexacnoic acid (0.57%), methyl ester (5.15%), Naphtho[1,2-6]furan-3-one (1.27%), 2,3,3a,4,5,5a,6,7,9a,9b- decahydro-3,5a-9-trimethyl-7,9a-peroxy (0.39%), Eremanthin (93.44%), 5-(ethynyl) nona-1,8-dien-5-ol (0.19%), Benzeneacetic acid (0.10%), Alpha-bergamotene (0.38%), 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, diisooctyl ester (2.55%), Isolongifolene, 4,5-dehydro- (3.68%).The results of this study offer a platform of using A.indica leaves as herbal alternative for various diseases. Key words: Medicinal plant, GC-MS, Azadirachta indica, Bioactive components.
