Extraction and isolation of clerodane as a bioactive molecule from Tragia ramosa

Abstract

Medicinal plants have been commendable source for as an alternative remedy for treating numerous diseases, because of the plant having analgesic activity, antibacterial activity, antioxidant activity, insecticidal activity & cytotoxicity. Due to an increasing demand for chemical diversity in screening programs, seeking therapeutic drugs from natural products interest particularly in Tragia ramosa plants has grown throughout the Maharashtra. The focus of this paper is on the analytical methodologies, which include extraction, isolation & characterization of active ingredients from Tragia ramosa plant, As extraction is the most important steps in the analysis of bioactive molecule present in plant extracts. The analysis of bioactive compounds present in the plant extracts was characterized by Fourier transform Infrared (FTIR) spectral & 1H NMR method.
