Abstract
Historically, medicinal plants have been the mainstay of human disease therapy. In the past, traditional systems of medicine have used the Asteraceae family member pluchea lanceolata (Rasna) as a bitter, laxative, and nervine tonic. The leaves of the plant, which are a part of the pluchea lanceolata species, are the focus of the current study's attention. It examines their pharmacological activity, pharmacognostic profile, and preliminary phytochemical research. Using a variety of criteria, such as ash value, extractive value, moisture content, etc., we investigated the antibacterial and antioxidant activity. P. lanceolata leaf extracts were used to investigate the in vitro antibiotic efficacy of four microorganisms. Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Bacillus subtilis at a temperature of 37 °C, these bacteria were cultivated in nutrient broth, Mueller Hinton agar and the Cup-Plate method were used to conduct an anti-microbial assay. A 400 ug/ml concentration of P. lanceolata extract and a 200 ug/ml concentration of the common antibiotic Amoxicillin were dissolved in DMSO solvent. The second activity, antioxidant activity, was evaluated spectrophotometrically by the DDPH (2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) assay using ascorbic acid as a reference. Concentrations ranging from 100 to 500 g/ml of P. lanceolata leaf extracts in petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, and alcohol were created. According to the findings of the current investigation, pluchea lanceolata is an important source of many therapeutically useful components. Researchers have identified a variety of therapeutic characteristics for the plant after doing significant pharmacological research on it.
