Phytochemical prospecting, identification and evaluation of the microbiological activity of secondary metabolites of Annona mucosa Jacq

Abstract

The present work describes the results obtained for the phytochemical and microbiological studies of the 70% hydroethanolic extract, its fractions and metabolites isolated from the leaves of Biribazeiro ( Annona mucosa Jacq.). Initially, the hydroethanolic extract (70%) of the vegetable leaves was prepared and a phytochemical screening was carried out in search of the secondary metabolites of study. The tests confirmed the presence of tannins, flavonols, flavanones, flavanonols, xanthones, leucoanthocyanidins, anthocyanidins, free steroids,
