Abstract Amomum nilgiricum is one of the plant species reported from Western Ghats of India, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, with ethno-botanical values, and is well-known for their ethno medicinal applications. In the present investigation, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of A. nilgiricum were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to identify the important functional groups and phytochemical constituents. The FTIR spectra revealed the occurrence of functional characteristic peaks of aromatic amines, carboxylic acids, ketones, phenols and alkyl halides group from leaf and rhizome extracts. The GC–MS analysis of ethyl acetate and methanol extracts from leaves, and methanol extract from rhizomes of A. nilgiricum detected the presence of 25 phytochemical compounds. Further, the leaf and rhizome extracts of A. nilgiricum showed remarkable antibacterial and antifungal activities at 100 mg/mL. The results of DPPH and ferric reducing antioxidant power assay recorded maximum antioxidant activity in A. nilgiricum methanolic leaf extract. While, ethyl acetate leaf extract exhibited maximum α-amylase inhibition activity, followed by methanolic leaf extract exhibiting aldose reductase inhibition. Subsequently, these 25 identified compounds were analyzed for their bioactivity through in silico molecular docking studies. Results revealed that among the phytochemical compounds identified, serverogenin acetate might have maximum antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antioxidant and antidiabetic properties followed by 2,4-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane and (1,3-13C2)propanedioic acid. To our best knowledge, this is the first description on the phytochemical constituents of the leaves and rhizomes of A. nilgiricum, which show pharmacological significance, as there has been no literature available yet on GC–MS and phytochemical studies of this plant species. The in silico molecular docking of serverogenin acetate was also performed to confirm its broad spectrum activities based on the binding interactions with the antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, antioxidant and antidiabetic target proteins. The results of the present study will create a way for the invention of herbal medicines for several ailments by using A. nilgiricum plants, which may lead to the development of novel drugs.

Christia vespertilionis (L. f.) Bakh. f. has been widely known in treating various contagious diseases. This plant is popular among researchers and locals to have anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer properties. There are two types of C. vespertilionis which is green and red type. The green C. vespertilionis was extensively studied by many researchers and known by the public as a cure to the cancer. This study was carried out to identify major phytochemicals and optimise extraction method of green C. vespertilionis leaves in different extraction techniques (maceration and Soxhlet extraction) and solvents (methanol and ethanol) through GC-MS analysis. The green C. vespertilionis leaves extract was tested using Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometer (GC-MS). The components were identified by comparing National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Based on four samples which are green C. vespertilionis leaves using maceration of methanol (GMM), maceration of ethanol (GME), Soxhlet of methanol (GSM) and Soxhlet of ethanol (GSE), seventy phytochemical compounds were identified. Thirteen major phytochemical compounds (> 4 % of peak area) are acetic acid, butyl ester; 1-Butanol, 3-methyl-, acetate; 1,3-Diisobutyrin, trimethylsilyl; .alpha.-d-Mannofuranoside, methyl; 1- Tetradecene; 1-Hexadecene; 1-Octadecene; Hexanoic acid, 3-oxo-, ethyl ester; 4-O-Methylmannose; n-Hexadecanoic acid; Phytol; 9,12,15-Octadecatrienoic acid, (Z,Z,Z)- and Squalene. Only ten out of thirteen compounds were reported to have biological activities. Among those samples, GMM and GSM were the most effective using correlation coefficient analysis between peak area (%) versus real time (min) with significant difference at P < 0.001.

AbstractBackground: Utilization of Morinda lucida for the treatment of ailments such as malaria, diarrhea, infertility in women, and dysentery in many countries including Nigeria is on increase due to its efficiency, availability, and affordability. However, its cytogenotoxicity has not been elucidated. This study investigated the phytochemical constituents and possible genotoxic and cytotoxic effects of M. lucida leaf extract in Swiss albino male mice using bone marrow micronucleus and sperm morphology assays. Methods: Plant materials was collected, thoroughly washed, and air-dried at room temperature prior to maceration. The extract was assessed for the presence of the phytochemical compounds. Swiss albino male mice (Mus musculus) (n=4) were treated with different concentrations of this extract (400 mg/kg, 800 mg/kg, and 1200 mg/kg) while distilled water was used as negative control. Results: Phytochemical analysis revealed that the extract contains saponins, terpenoids, flavonoids, glycosides, and tannins. We observed micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE) and normochromatic erythrocytes (NCE) of 3.20%, 1.10%, and 1.95% at different concentrations of 400 mg/kg, 800 mg/kg, and 1200 mg/kg respectively in the treated animals. The result showed no significant increase in the frequency of abnormalities (p < 0.05) when compared to the negative control; however, in separate analysis of mono-micronucleated PCE and mono-micronucleated NCE per group, a significant increase at 400 mg/kg and 1200 mg/kg concentrations was observed. The sperm anomalies decreased with increase in concentration. Conclusions: This study recommends 800 mg/kg concentration of the plant extract; however, it should be further and properly investigated as it contains some pharmaceutical components that can be used for pharmacological purposes.
