PHYTOCHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS AND MICROBIAL ACTIVITIES OF SYZYGIUM AROMATICUM PLANT-A REVIEW Authors: Kumar S
ABSTRACT
The experiment was conducted to explore the phytochemical constituents and antibacterial association of
Syzygium aromaticum extract against some food borne pathogen. Fluid and methanol removes from Syzygium
aromaticum buds were readied, examined for phytochemical investigation & tried for antibacterial
action against 6 pathogenic microscopic organisms (Klebsiella pneumoneae, Salmonella typhi, Shigella
spp, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus). The Phytochemical screening
of the concentrates demonstrated that Syzygium aromaticum bud extricates contained Alkaloid, Anthraquinone,
saponin, tannin, phenol, steroid, and flavonoid, terpenoid while glycoside and diminishing
sugar were missing. Then again, alkaloids were seen as the most inexhaustible phytochemical (9.6%)
trailed by tannin, saponin and flavonoids. Factual investigation of the outcome indicated that methanol
remove showed most elevated antibacterial action with normal zone of restraint of 14.18±2.47 mm among
the secludes than watery concentrates (12.33±1.82 mm). In view of the weakness of the living beings to
the concentrates, E. coli was seen as the most elevated helpless creatures with normal range of restraint of
14.79±1.97 mm, followed Salmonella typhi (13.84±2.52 mm), S. aureus (13.7±1.65 mm), Shigella
(13.44±1.12 mm), Pseudomonas (12.27 ±0.98mm) while least normal zone of hindrance is appeared by
Klebsiella (11.55±1.60 mm). The MIC and MBC of the concentrates ranges from 3.125 to 50 mg/ml
There is not a noteworthy diverse on the helplessness of the living beings against the concentrates at p<
0.05. The consequences of current investigation has given defense to remedial capability of ginger and
furthermore utilized as dietary enhancement for food seasoning and safeguarding.
