EVALUATION OF ANTIOXIDANT AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF ZANTHOXYLUM ARMATUM: A RESEARCH

Abstract

Introduction: The genus Zanthoxylum of the family Rutaceae is economically important due to its nutritional, industrial, and therapeutic values. Z. armatum is a short tree or a shrub that grows under dry conditions.  Objective: The current examination manages the full scale concentrates just as investigations of assessment of pharmacognostical, phytochemical, antioxidants and antibacterial movement of Zanthoxylum armatum leaves some particular characters were noticed while contemplating their cross over areas. Materials and Methods: Physiochemical and primer phytochemical investigations of the leaves of the plant Zanthoxylum armatum were additionally done. The antioxidants assay is performed by various methods like DPPH, nitric oxide, and hydrogen peroxide. Results and Discussion: The extract of the plant shows various effects as antioxidants on various concentrations and showed graphically. The antibacterial examinations affirmed that the ethanolic removal was very compelling for Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, E. coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa at 25 μg/ml, 50 μg/ml, 100 μg/ml, 200 μg/ml, 300 μg/ml, 500  μg/ml and tetracycline (100 μg/ml) individually. The current investigation may be helpful to enhance data with respect to its distinguishing proof boundaries expected essentially in the method of the adequacy of home grown medications in the current situation lacking administrative laws to control nature of natural medications and furthermore to discover the antioxidants and antibacterial action.
