Abstract
Saussurea obvallata belong
to family Asteraceae of flowering, Aromatic and Herbal plants this genus
also encompasses of 490 species this species are utilized in various countries
for their medicinal properties, contributing to diverse traditional health care
practises found in mountain terrain regions. Saussurea obvallata holds
diverse indigenous medicinal practices. The blossoms, foliage and rhizomes of s.obvallata
serves various traditional, spiritual, healing, and decorative functions.
Our motive of study was to identify the antimicrobial activity of S.
obvallata extracts was assessed against a panel of pathogens, including
bacteria such as Escherichia Coli, Campylobacter jejuni, staphylococcus
aureus, Clostridium Spp and Pseudomonas Spp. using agar well
diffusion. Phytocontitutinal activity Furthermore, extract demonstrated potent
antioxidant activity, as evaluated by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) assay.
These assays revealed the extracts' ability to scavenge free radicals
effectively, highlighting their potential in combating oxidative stress-related
disorders. assays of obvallata blossoms extract. Moreove the
antidiabetic potential of S. obvallata extracts was assessed through α-amylase
inhibition assays. Both extracts showed promising inhibition of these enzymes,
suggesting their potential in managing diabetes and related complications by
regulating blood glucose levels.In conclusion, S. obvallata extracts
possess a rich phytochemical profile with significant antimicrobial,
antioxidant, and antidiabetic activities.These discoveries highlight the
promise of S. obvallata as a valuable natural resource for developing
therapeutic agents against microbial infections, oxidative stress, and
diabetes. Further research is warranted to isolate and characterize the active
constituents responsible for these bioactivities and elucidate their mechanisms
of action for future drug development endeavors.
