Dysoxylum malabaricum is a constituent of ayurvedic thrigandha and its wood and fruits are being used in traditional medicine. The study aims at chemical profiling of the biologically active components present in the seeds of Dysoxylum malabaricum through GC-MS analysis in methanol and chloroform extracts. The analysis resulted in 28 phytochemicals and the major compounds identified includes, Methyl 4-O-methyl-d-arabinopyranoside, 1,2,4-Triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3(2H)-one, 5-methyl-,2-Butenamide, 2-ethyl-3-methyl-N-phenyl-,Methylpalmitate,9-octadecenoicacid(z)-, methylester, 1-Hexadecene, Heptadecane, Pseudolimonene, Cyclohexane, 1-methylene-4-(1-methylethenyl)-, Alpha, gamma-dipalmitin, 1-Tetradecene, 1-Octadecene with reported antioxidant and anti-microbial properties along with minor compounds of remarkable properties. The analysis further included an antioxidant assay which revealed the effective antioxidant property of the Dysoxylum malabaricum seeds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
