Abstract

Plants are a valuable resource for the identification of novel pharmaceutical products that can be used in the development of new drugs, and their secondary metabolites are special sources of medications, food additives, flavors, and other industrial uses.It is possible to predict a plant'spharmacologicalactivitybyidentifyingitsphytochemicals. Plantsarecapable of creating secondary metabolites, according to phytochemicals. Theprotective and structural properties of phytochemicals contribute significantlyto the lifetime of plants. A member of the Fabaceae family, Leucaena leucocephala is a medium-sized, quickly-growing tree. Leucocephala, which refers to the blooms, is the particular name for them. Leu is a Greek word that means white, and cephala means head.TherehavebeenallegationsthatthevarioussectionsofL.leucocephalapossessedmedicinalproperties.Plantextractshavebeendemonstratedtopossessstrongantibacterialandantifungalactivities. Alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and triterpenoids have all been citedas important phytochemical components of this plant. The pharmacologicaleffects of this plant include antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and anti-diabetic characteristics.In this study, Leucaena leucocephala root extract was studiedfor antioxidant activity and anticancer activity. The Leucaena leucocephala’sroot ethanolic extract showed the presence of tannins, terpenoids, steroids,glycosides, flavonoids, quinones, phenol, and carbohydrates. The antioxidantactivity of Leucaena leucocephala’s root ethanolic extract was found to be100.943µg/ml.TheanticanceractivityofLeucaenaleucocephala’srootextract was found to be 187.801 µg/ml. Thus, Leucaena leucocephala rootextract will act as a good therapeutic agent with antioxidant and anticancerproperties.
