Phytochemical Analysis and Antibacterial Determination of Costus Igneus Leaves
Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Costus igneus belongs to the Costaceae family. Costus igneus common name is ‘Fiery Costus' or ‘Spiral Flag', is a species of herbaceous plant in the Costaceae family Costus igneus is traditionally know as insulin plant in Maharashtra. In India it is grow in garden as ornamental plant. This plant is becoming popular because of its anti diabetic property. In the study is preliminary effort to provide basic analytical value for Costus igneus leaf powder. Identification of the secondary metabolites from Costus igneus plant in therapeutic application of diabetes is of growing interest as they contain many active phytochemical constituents against hyperglycaemic condition. The antibacterial potential of Costus igneus hot and cold aqueous extract was tested by using agar well diffusion method. by Sapna Patil | Malika Ahuja "Phytochemical Analysis and Antibacterial Determination of Costus Igneus Leaves" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-3 | Issue-3 , April 2019, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd21654.pdf Paper URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/biological-science/microbiology/21654/phytochemical-analysis-and-antibacterial-determination-of-costus-igneus-leaves/sapna-patil
