“…This analysis revealed the presence of compounds like diterpenes, triterpenes, and flavonoids, which are known to exhibit antimicrobial activities that inhibit bacterial growth (Table IV). Therefore, we can assume that the antimicrobial activity observed in crude extracts may well be associated with these types of compounds (Figure 3) (Rijo et al 2011, Roberto et al 2007.…”

“…Phytochemical studies using some species of Plectranthus revealed the presence of a large number of diterpenes and triterpenes. The terpenoids are considered to be the main responsible compounds for the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities presented by (3) Plectranthus species . Antioxidants mitigate the harmful effect of free radicals, which damage human cells under 'oxidative stress' conditions.…”
