It is uses as a coloring and flavouring agent in the preparation of various foods. Modern research has high lighted its beneficial effects in treatment of cardiovascular action, diabetic cataract, and as a potent antiinflammatory herb. Due to its high cost its quality control is of utmost importance to ensure its authenticity, purity and its medicinal properties. In the preset study the we have used Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) analysis, High performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) fingerprint, UV-Vis spectrophotometric analysis, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) based metabolomic study for quality control and characterization of saffron. The antibacterial and antifungal activity were evaluated using agar well-diffusion method in two pathogenic bacterial strains, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and two pathogenic fungal strains, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus brasiliensis. The 1H NMR spectroscopy couples with FTIR analysis leads to identifcation of the secondary metabolites of saffron like crocetin, picrocrocin and safranal on basis of reported diagonostic signals and peaks. The antimicrobial activity showed moderate antibacterial and antifungal activity. The TLC and HPTLC profile reveals the characteristic fingerprint. Overall the present study showed that the 1H-NMR, FTIR based metabolomics approach and TLC and HPTLC metabolite profiling can be powerful strategy for maintaining the holistic quality of the saffron.","PeriodicalId":21071,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136083597","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}

Results and conclusion: In preliminary phytochemical screening the extracts showed the presence of major phytoconstituents such as alkaloid, flavonoid, tannin, saponin, terpenoid, sterols, carbohydrate and protein. The Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were noted in both invitro activity screening. In Antimicrobial screening, the ethanolic extract of Ziziphus nummularia root was more susceptible to Staphylococci with a maximum zone of inhibition 24mm, while aqueous extract showed zone of inhibition 14mm at 80 mg/ml. It shows that ethanolic extract of Ziziphus nummularia root has good potential antimicrobial activity against aqueous extract and standard drug. Similarly in antituberculosis activity, the aqueous extract of Ziziphus nummularia root showed minimum inhibitory at a concentration of 25 μg/ml, while ethanolic extract showed minimum inhibitory concentration at 100 μg/ml. The aqueous extract of Ziziphus nummularia has moderate antituberculosis activity when compared with ethanolic extract and standard drug we used.","PeriodicalId":21071,"journal":{"name":"Research Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry","volume":"194 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136083306","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}

Qualitative and quantitative analysis are performed to determine the presence and content of phytochemicals. Four in vitro assay models were used to investigate the antioxidant activity. Phytochemical experiments confirmed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, flavonols, resins, saponins, proanthocyanidins, glycosides, steroids, and tannins. Qualitative analysis showed the total content of polyphenols such as phenolic, flavonoids, flavonols, and proanthocyanidin in those extracts. Among all the Extracts, ethanol extracted from the leaves of F. hispida has shown superior activity in the testing of the total antioxidant capacity assay.
