PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND ANTITUBERCULAR ACTIVITY OF CENTRATHERUM ANTHELMINTICM SEED EXTRACT
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacognosy - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
About 4 extracts (hexane, acetone, ethanol, and methanol extraction) from the seeds of Centratherum anthelminticum was extracted. Ethanol extract was characterized by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy. Seven constituents from 9 peaks were identified. 2-Oxo-pentanoic acid and hexadecanoic acid are as the major constituents and the miner constituents like Henicosanoic acid, 26-Phenoxy-hexacosanic methanoate, Hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, dotriacontanoic acid ethyl ester, nonadec-3-ene, icosa-2,5,diene and tetratriacontane were identified. The antimicrobial activity of different extract was tested against human and plant pathogenic bacteria. Ethanol extract showed significant role on inhibiting almost all tested pathogenic organisms andantitubercular activities at various concentration.
