GC-MS ANALYSIS OF BIO-ACTIVE COMPOUNDS AND IN-VITRO ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY IN METHANOLIC EXTRACTION OF INDIGOFERA PROSTRATE
AbstractThe present study focuses on identification of bioactive compounds from Methanolic extraction of Indigofera prostrate, by GC–MS analysis and also evaluated the efficacy of Indigofera prostrate for antioxidant activity. Phytochemical screening of the Methanolic extraction of Indigofera prostrate revealed the presence of flavonoids, phenolic compounds, triterpenoids, tannins, saponins, amino acids, proteins, Steroids, Gums and carbohydrates. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of the methanol extract of Indigofera prostrate was performed on a GC-MS equipment. The GC-MS analysis has shown the presence of different bio active compounds in the Methanolic extract of Indigofera prostrate. A total of 14 compounds were identified in methanolic extraction in that the main active compounds are Campesterol, Stigmasterol, γ-Sitosterol, Lupeol. From the results, it is evident that Indigofera prostrate contains various phytocomponents and is recommended as a plant of phytopharmaceutical importance.
