Herbal plants have been used for centuries as traditional medicine to treat various diseases. Green plants generally contain phytochemical compounds, such as vegetables and plants that add aroma to dishes, one of which is curry leaves (Murraya Koenigii). This research aims to identify the phytochemical compounds contained in curry leaves. This research was carried out from August 2023 to October 2023. The curry leaves that were obtained were converted into extract form and then the extract was tested for the content of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, phenolics and tannins. The research results showed that curry leaf extract contained 23.73% alkaloids, 1.24% flavonoids, 8.74% saponins, 4.4% phenolics, and 5.2% tannins. Alkaloids in plants have a role as a defense against biotic and abiotic disorders. The benefits of flavonoids in plants include anti-mutagenic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-carcinogenic. Saponins have various benefits in the health sector, including being able to reduce cholesterol concentrations in the blood. Polyphenols have good antioxidant power because this group can provide electrons to neutralize free radical electrons formed in the body. Tannins also consist of polyphenolic compounds which have antibacterial, antioxidant and astringent activities. The results of the analysis regarding the content of secondary metabolite compounds in curry leaf extract play an important role in the development of future medicines and need to be carried out to provide knowledge to the public. This study can be a basis for bioactive content for further research to expand the use of medicinal plants in the future, especially curry plants.

The oceans and all the marine life forms that they harbor remain a major source of treasure to mankind, covering 71% of the earth's surface and representing over 95% of the biosphere. Zoanthids, a subclass of the benthic Anthozoans, are found in almost all marine environments. Despite this fact, the order Zoantharia is still one of the most taxonomically neglected and least examined orders of the phylum Cnidaria. However, they are gaining importance in the pharmaceutical research field due to the significance of bioactive compounds secreted from their bodies. Zoanthus sansibaricus species collected from the Indian coast have been explored in the present study. The study aimed to isolate chemical constituents from the methanol and methanol: chloroform (1:1) extract of Zoanthus sp. by subjecting it to a series of chromatographic analysis. In total, eight compounds were purified from petroleum ether, chloroform, n-butanol, and methanol-soluble parts of aqueous fractions. The compounds were characterized using spectroscopic techniques such as Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), 1H and 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), and Mass spectrometry. Total phenolic content and total flavonoid content were estimated using the Folin-Ciocalteu method and Aluminum chloride method, respectively. The phenolic compound contents of the petroleum ether and methanol-soluble part of the aqueous fraction were 18.92mg/g GAE and 7.02mg/g GAE, respectively. Total flavonoid content in the petroleum ether fraction was 8.05mg/g QUE and 1.38mg/g QUE in the methanol-soluble part of the aqueous fraction. This study emphasizes the need for a more extensive compilation of such data to extend our pool of knowledge about marine natural products as potential candidates for drug discovery.

Herbal cosmetics have growing demand on the earth market and are a precious gift of nature. Herbal formulations continuously have attracted gigantic concentration on the grounds that of their good endeavor and comparatively lesser or nil side effect with synthetic medications. Hair loss problem is of great significance to both men and women. Alopecia is the medical term for hair loss or baldness. It is a health condition in which hair is lost from some or all areas of the body, usually from the scalp. Hair loss can be caused due to different reasons, such as genetics, environmental triggers, exposure to chemicals, medicines, nutritional deficiency, extreme stress or long illness etc. This hindrance could be solved by the use of natural medicines obtained from herbs. Various herbs are being used to preclude the hair loss and remorse of hairs. Herbs are starting material for any medicine research. Approximately about 80% residents recommended herbal drugs for their beneficial effects along with fewer side effects as compared synthetic drugs.
