ABSTRACT
Several studies on Prunus domestica L. are reported on the fruit of this plant species. Therefore, the current study was carried out on the leaves of P. domestica to evaluate the nutritive value, qualitative phytochemical screening, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, antibacterial activity, protein denaturation inhibitory activity, and elemental analysis using ICP-MS technique. The study revealed that it has a significant nutritive value and the presence of many secondary metabolites. TPC was highest in diethyl ether fraction. Antioxidant activity was also highest in diethyl ether. Four extracts have shown antibacterial activity except for petroleum ether extract. Petroleum ether, methanolic, and aqueous extracts are found to be active in the selected concentration range for protein denaturation inhibition activity. Keywords: Phytochemical, antioxidant, antibacterial activity, PDIA, ICP-MS
