PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND ANTITUBERCULAR ACTIVITY OF CENTRATHERUM ANTHELMINTICM SEED EXTRACT
AbstractAbout 4 extracts (hexane, acetone, ethanol, and methanol extraction) from the seeds of Centratherum anthelminticum was extracted. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy characterized ethanol extract. Seven constituents from 9 peaks were identified. 2-Oxo-pentanoic acid and hexadecanoic acid are as the major constituents, and the minor constituents like Henicosanoic acid, 26-Phenoxy-hexacosanoic methanoate, Hexadecanoic acid methyl ester, dotriacontanoic acid ethyl ester, nonadec-3-ene, icosa-2,5, diene, and tetratriacontane were identified. The antimicrobial activity of the different extract was tested against human and plant pathogenic bacteria. Ethanol extract showed a significant role in inhibiting almost all tested pathogenic organisms and antitubercular activities at various concentration.
