FTIR Spectrum, Phytochemical Assessment and Biological Properties of Solanum Surrattense

Abstract

Solanum surattense are the most important medicinal plants that can be useful for the treatment of different diseases. The Seed, flower, root, leaf, and stem of the plant were selected, collected, washed, dried, converted into a fine powder, and stored for phytochemical analysis. The finding of the present study indicated that the roots, stem, leaves, flowers, and seeds showed a significant amount of phytochemicals including alkaloid, flavonoid, tannin, glycoside, terpenoid, steroid, and antioxidant content and the FTIR Spectroscopic characteristic peak values between 4000-500 cm-1 was measured for the detection of the various functional group including aromatic compounds, glycoside, tannin, flavonoid and saponin, amino acids and protein, glycogen, collagen, and DNA. This study showed that of rich sources of proximate composition including Carbohydrate, protein, and ash whereas the presence of the appreciable amount of flavonoid, phenolic compound, and tannin. The seeds showed the appreciable sources of alkaloid and leave showed antioxidant content. The richest sources of principle essential minerals including Ca, K, Na, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, Co, Cu, Cr, Ni whereas toxic minerals such as Pb and Cd are investigated in permissible limit. Antibacterial activity indicated in the present studies that the Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli were showed. The growth of Bacillus Cereus and Escherichia Coli is inhibited by mostly all parts of plants. Solanum surattense is the richest source of phytochemical and possessed biological properties that can be beneficial for the synthesis of new plant-derived for the treatment of different diseases.
