Phyto Medicinal Compounds from Urginea indica Kunth: A Synthetic Drugs Potential Alternative
Journal Title: Journal of Pharmaceutical Research International - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 5
Abstract
Urginea indica belongs to Lilliaceae family the analysis of bioactive compounds through GCMS analysis revealed the presence of various phytosterols, organic acids, esters, phenoles and ketones have identified. The 36 compounds identified included hepato protective and dermatogenic 9,12,15-Octadecatrienoic acid 18.02%, anti cancerous and anti glycemic. Stigmasterol 17.35%, and Squalene 3.22%, antimicrobial and Hypocholesterolemic n-Hexadecanoic acid 14.26%, Antimicrobial, Diuretic Phytol 10.63%, anti carcinogenic pyrogallol 10.40%, anti atherosclerotic 9,12 -Octadecadienoic acid 6.44%, Octadecanoic acid 3.36% were identified. It was also reported to have various alkaloids, flavonoid glycosides, anti oxidants, saponins, proteins and carbohydrate. The identified compounds gave reason to various traditional medicines from U. indica and a key to new medicines.
