RESEARCH

“Studies on the Phytochemical Analysis, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial activity of some Medicinal plants”

The six Medicinal plants of different species were studied for the presence of various phytochemicals and analysed for the antioxidant activity. The phytochemicals were also analysed for antimicrobial activity against various Human pathogens. The plants showing the highest antioxidant activity were subjected to GC-MS analysis and detected for the compounds which has the future applications in the field of pharmacology.
