This study aims to investigate phytochemical screening and examines the antioxidant and antibacterial property of leaves. The shade dried leaf powder was extracted serially using hexane, acetone, and water. All three extracts were subjected to phytochemical screenings and only water extract is subjected to antibacterial and antioxidant analysis. Preliminary phytochemical screening was carried out by different chemical tests. Amino acid, Carbohydrate, Protein were the primary metabolites found to be present. The Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Terpenoids, Steroids, Saponins, Phenol, Tannin, and Cardiac glycosides showed to be present as the secondary metabolites. The terpenoids were found only in acetone extract. The evaluation of antibacterial activity of the aqueous extract of Morinda citrifolia against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa at concentrations 10, 50,100μl. The bacterial strains are sub-cultured on nutrient broth. The aqueous extract of Morinda citrifolia shows maximum antibacterial activity in 100μl concentrations, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa it will be 61.46% and in the case of Escherichia coli 52.24%. The antioxidant activity of aqueous extract of Morinda citrifolia was carried out by 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. Different concentration of the extract was taken and the percentage of inhibition was calculated. Maximum radical scavenging activity was observed in 100μl concentration i.e. 68.94% and minimum in 50μl concentration. i.e., 49.47%. So as the concentration increases the antioxidant activity also increases. The data generated as a result of this investigation has provided the scientific basis for its use as therapeutic in traditional medicine.","PeriodicalId":14070,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Herbal Medicine","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84975840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New mechanisms of resistance are emerging and spreading globally which threatens our ability to treat common infectious diseases. Many scientists documented some plants having antimicrobial properties. Zingiber officinale Roscoe (ZO), the most recognised member of Zingiber, is one of them. This review aims to validate the antimicrobial activity of ginger. The information and data on ZO were collated from various resources like ethnobotanical textbooks, Pub Med, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Web of Science, and Scopus. ZO has many medicinal, nutritional and ethnomedical values and is commonly used as a spice, flavouring agent and herbal remedy worldwide. In addition to giving ginger its pungent aroma, volatile oil gingerol and other pungent principles are the most medically potent since they inhibit the production of prostaglandin and leukotriene, which are chemicals that affect blood flow and inflammation. Traditionally, it has been used as an herbal remedy for centuries in Ayurvedic, Tibb-Unani, Chinese, Islamic, Africans, the Caribbean and many other medicinal systems to cure a variety of diseases like throat infections, asthma, inflammation, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, palpitation, constipation and indigestion, colds, arthritis, nausea, hypertension, migraines, and many more. It has a high proportion of α-Zingiberene, β-sesquiphellandrene, (E,E)- α-farnesene, geranial and ar-curcumene. The ZO extracts, essential oil and chemical constituents exhibited antimicrobial, anticonvulsant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiulcer, immunomodulatory, and other beneficial activities. The research suggests that there are marked antimicrobial activities in the ginger that could be beneficial and applied in various research areas, such as the pharmaceutical and food industries. To understand the molecular mechanisms by which these effects are exerted, more research may be required.","PeriodicalId":14070,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Herbal Medicine","volume":"74 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86997033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of herbal medicines has increased because of their ability to treat different diseases with fewer side effects. The development of novel drug delivery system (NDDS) is of considerable importance to overcome various constraints like poor bioavailability, in vivo stability, aqueous insolubility, intestinal absorption and unspecific site of action. The integration of the Nano science as a NDDS in traditional system of medicine enriches the potential of herbal drugs for treating chronic diseases such as cancer and ravaging diseases. The synthesis of nanoparticles can be achieved by adopting the novel methodologies such as Polymer nanoparticle, Magnetic nanoparticle and Metallic nanoparticle depending on characteristic of the nanoparticles. The advanced technologies will shed lights for characterizing the nanoparticles to determine the toxicity profiles for their physical and chemical properties.
