The objective of the current study is to evaluate the phytochemical profile and cytotoxic properties
of the crude aqueous extract of Phaseolus vulgaris Linn. leaves. This plant is well-known for its
nutritional and agricultural benefits, and its crude extract was obtained through the sequential
extraction method. The extract was then subjected to High-Resolution Liquid Chromatography-
Mass spectrometry (HR-LCMS) analysis to identify the phytoconstituents present. A total of 120
phytoconstituents were obtained, with 26 compounds being identified as major constituents in both
positive and negative ESI modes. Sapropterin, Melibiose, Pirbuterol, Osmaronin, N-
Isovalerylglycine methyl ester, Beta-D-Galactopyranosyl-(1->4) -beta-D-galactopyranosyl- (1-
>4) -D-galactose, 3-Methyladenine, 3-Beta, 6-Beta-Dihydroxynortropane, D-pipecolic acid,
Lotaustralin, 8-Hydroxyadenine, L-threo-3-Phenylserine, L-isoleucyl-L-proline, Gentianadine, L-
Arogenate, Prolyl-Arginine, Norcotinine, Ganolucidic acid E, Benzocaine, Succinoadenosine, D-
Galactonate, Melibiose, Thiolactomycin, (Z)-5-[(5-Methyl-2-thienyl)methylene] -2(5H)
Furanone, Rutin, and Kuwanon Z. The toxicity of crude extracts at various concentrations wasevaluated using the Sulforhodamine B assay on the HaCaT cell line. The results indicated that the
IC50 value for the crude extract was 853.2 ± 0.11 g/ml. A dose-dependent cytotoxic effect of the
crude aqueous extract was observed on the HaCaT cell line. Therefore, it is necessary to isolate,
purify, and characterize bioactive compounds responsible for their bioactivity.
