Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a disorder whose frequency is speedily increasing everywhere on the planet. According to the World HealthOrganization (WHO), a United Nations Agency, polygenic diseases are going to be the seventh leading reason for death in 2030. Several healthful plants like Citrullus lanatus, Trigonella foenum-graecum, and Murraya koenigii are used for the treatment of diabetes disorders in the Indian medicine system and different ancient systems of the world. These three plant leaves were collected from Vadodara and Anand, Gujarat. Thin layer chromatography profiling of all three plant leaves confirmed the presence of various common classes of phytochemicals such as rutin, gallic acid, tannic acid, and quercetin in both cities. Thin layer chromatographic analysis of a particular leaf revealed various retention factor values in the range of 0.01 to 0.97. Also, C. lanatus, T. foenum-graecum, and M. koenigii plant leaves confirmed the antioxidant and antidiabetic activity but C. lanatus from Anand city was found to be the best plant. The study will help in the future to identify this plant for further research in industries and pharmaceutical companies.
