STUDIES ON PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING, ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTIMICROBIAL STUDIES OF SANTALUM ALBUM BARK EXTRACT
*Jayasimha Rayalu Daddam
Abstract Phytochemical screening and antioxidant properties of the Santalum album bark extract was studied. Santalum album bark material was dried, powdered and used for a phytochemical screening. In the present study the photochemical compunds of Santalum album were identified using different extracts. Different fractions of Santalum album for free radicals of 1, 1-diphenyl 1-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) showed remarkable scavenging activity. Ethanolic extract showed the highest scavenging activity followed by Ethyl acetate. Ethanolic extract of the bark recorded the highest antimicrobial activity and achieved the highest activity index among all the extracts. Keywords: Santalum album, Antioxidant activity, anti-microbial activity, phytochemical screening. [Full Text Article] [Download Certificate] |
