“…In line with the present study, Geetha et al 35 and Santhosh Kumar et al 36 observed similar results in leaves of Elaeocarpus serratus 35 and the whole plant of Adiantum capillus-veneris 36 respectively. Therefore, the chemical standardization study revealed that Glochidion ellipticum is rich in secondary metabolites which possessed wide range of biological activities.…”

The aim of the present study is to identify the volatile, bioactive phytoconstituents present in the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Glochidion ellipticum Wt. (Euphorbiaceae) was carried out by using GC-MS analysis, while mass spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the National Institute of Standards and Technology and Wiley library. Twenty seven components from leaves of the above said plant were identified. The active principles with their retention time, molecular formula, molecular weight and concentration (%) in the ethanol extract of leaf of G. ellipticum are obtained. This is the first report of documentation of active constituents from leaves of Glochidion ellipticum. The research reveals the potential of G. ellipticum leaves as a good source of bioactive compounds such as esters, ethers, alkaloids, alkenes, fatty alcohols, terpenoids, amines, porphyrin and silicon compounds that justify the use of this plant for its various ailments by traditional practitioners. INTRODUCTION: Nature is the best combinatorial chemist and possibly has answers to all diseases of humankind. Green plants represent a reservoir of effective chemotherapeutants as they are non-phytotoxic, more systemic and easily biodegradable 1. Till now, natural compounds discovered from medicinal plants have provided numerous clinically useful drugs. A knowledge of the chemical constituents of plants is desirable not only for the discovery of therapeutic agents, but also because such information may be of great value in disclosing new sources of economic phytocompounds for the synthesis of complex chemical substances and for discovering the actual significance of folkloric remedies 2 .

“…Our study revealed the presence of many phytochemicals particularly sesquiterpenes, turmerone, and fatty acid compounds in a chloroform extract. Previous studies had indicated that fatty acid compounds in nonpolar extracts of plants were responsible for antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiproliferative activities (Geetha et al, 2013;Selvamangai and Bhaskar, 2012). Many scientists have proved that essential oils of turmeric are responsible for antimicrobial activities (Dhingra et al, 2007;Garcia et al, 2008;Pawar and Thaker, 2007).…”

Objective: The aim of the study was to analyze qualitative and quantitative phytochemicals, evaluate in vitro antioxidant properties and determine the bioactive compounds in extracts of Dicranopteris linearis (Burm.f.) Underw. collected from Western Ghats of Kanyakumari district. Methods:The qualitative, quantitative phytochemical, and in vitro antioxidant analysis were performed using standard procedures. The bioactive compounds were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) instrument. Results:The qualitative phytochemical analysis studied in aqueous, acetone, chloroform, ethanol, and petroleum ether solvent extract showed acetone had strong positivity to express the 12 phytoconstituents studied except anthocyanin when compared to other solvent extracts. The quantitative phytochemistry revealed considerable amount of terpenoids (97.0±1.15 mg/g), tannins (30.8±0.44 mg tannic acid equivalents/gram), phenols (28.6±0.33 mg gallic acid equivalents/gram), and flavonoids (8.50±0.29 mg quercetin equivalent/g) in decreasing order of concentrations. The in vitro antioxidant activity of aqueous, ethanol, acetone, chloroform, and petroleum ether suggested that the extract of DL has prominent antioxidant prospective against various free radicals such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl while butylated hydroxy toluene being the standard antioxidant used. The GC-MS analysis displayed the presence of 11 bioactive compounds each belonging to various categories of phytochemicals such as terpenoids, flavonoids, phenols, and fatty acid derivatives. Conclusion:The results indicate that D. linearis (Burm.f.) Underw. present in the Western Ghats of Kanyakumari is an effective scavenger of free radicals and has the potential to be used as a natural antioxidant which is attributed to the rich presence of secondary metabolites.
