Abstract

In this study, phytochemical and biological properties of Atriplex halimus and Haloxylon scoparium leaves, collected in Algeria, were evaluated. The aqueous extract of the studied plants was subjected to phytochemical screening by biochemical analysis and HPLC. The diffusion assay was assessed to investigate the antimicrobial effect against clinical and reference strains. Moreover, we investigated DPPH and FRAP, as well as the haemolytic activity. The results showed abundance in the phytochemical and mineral components. Notably, A. halimus exhibited the highest DPPH and FRAP values with IC₅₀ = 1.69 ± 0.67 and IC₅₀ = 3.20 ± 0.04 mg/g, respectively. The antibacterial activity was better at the concentration of 25 mg/mL, compared to the standard antibiotics. The inhibition zones varied between 8 and 40 mm. The haemolytic activity did not depict any toxicity. The investigated plants exhibited interesting antioxidant and antibacterial properties and may serve as a valuable source for novel antimicrobial drugs.

期刊介绍： The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds. The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal. Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section. All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
