Phytochemical screening and anti stress activities of the methanolic extracts of Melochia Corchorofolia leaves.

Abstract

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the possible “phytochemical screening and antistress activities of the methanol extracts of Melochia Corchorifolia leaves” (family: Sterculiaceae. The leaf's methanol and water extracts have been shown in numerous studies to have antibacterial, antifungal, cytotoxic, and anti-cancer properties. Using conventional procedures, the methanolic extract underwent a phytochemical examination. Numerous phytoconstituents were found, including glycosides, terpenoids, alkaloids, steroids, tannins, phenols, and saponins, according to the analysis. The design research investigates the impacts of spleen anatomy, blood glucose levels, weight fluctuation, and anti stress exercise. The stress group had blood glucose levels of 10.23 ± 1.08 mmol/L and 7.43 ± 0.89 mmol/L, whereas the medicinal sample group had values of 8.9 ± 0.81 mmol/L and 11.03 ± 0.37 mmol/L, respectively. The stress group had a cortisol level of 4.17± 0.19 ug/dl, whereas the medicinal sample group and standard group had levels of 2.13± 0.30 ug/dl and 3.17± 0.18 ug/dl, respectively. Weight fluctuation for the stress group was 26.66 ± 1.20gm, whereas the sample group was 25 ±1 gm. A morphological analysis of the spleen was done in order to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of conventional and herbal medicines against the spleen mass.
