Abstract

Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the bioactive compounds of Mukia maderaspatana and its properties. In addition, the preliminary phytochemical analysis and antioxidant potential of Mukia maderaspatana were performed.

Methods: Extraction of leaves of Mukia maderaspatana made using Soxhlet apparatus, followed by evaluation of phytochemicals such as alkaloids, flavonoids, coumarin, glycosides, terpenoids, tannin, steroid, saponin, phenol, anthraquinone by the standard methodology of Sofowara, Trease and Evans, Harborne. Quantification of phytochemicals were performed accordingly to standard methodology. Antioxidant activity were performed accordingly to methodology of Shimada, Prieto, Zhang and Benzie. Methodology of Hema et al. is followed for detection of bioactive compounds by GC-MS analysis.

Results: The Qualitative analysis revealed the presence of higher concentration of phytocompounds in Hydroalcoholic extract. The yield of alkaloid (215.8±4.78 mg AE), flavonoid (307.10±8.73 mg QE), phenol (374.50±6.41 mg GAE), tannin (129.98±5.32 mg TAE) and terpenoids (119.23±4.17 mg LE) are higher in hydroalcoholic extract than aqueous and methanolic extract. IC50 value for DPPH radical scavenging activity, Total antioxidant activity, Hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity and Ferric reducing antioxidant power activity are (61.43µg/ml), (59.68µg/ml), (55.69µg/ml), (64.60µg/ml). GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of about thirty compounds in hydroalcoholic extract of Mukia maderaspatana.

Conclusion: The present study reveals that Mukia maderaspatana is an important medicinal plant. We can conclude that Leaves of Mukia maderaspatana are good source of antioxidants, which might cure the disease related to oxidative stress.
