Antibacterial and Antioxidant Compounds from the Flower Extracts of Vernonia amygdalina2018 •
Vernonia amygdalina is traditionally used in Ethiopia to treat various diseases. This prompted us to isolate bioactive compounds from the flowers of this plant. The CHCl3 extract after silica gel column chromatography has led to the isolation of two compounds identified as tricosane (1) and vernolide (2), while the acetone extract furnished isorhamnetin (3) and luteolin (4). The acetone extract and isorhamnetin significantly scavenged the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical by 91.6 and 94%, respectively. It was also shown that the acetone extract and isorhamnetin inhibited lipid peroxidation by 74 and 80%, respectively. The extracts and isolated compounds were also evaluated for their antibacterial activity with the CHCl3 extract and vernolide showing strong activity against S. aureus with an inhibition zone of 21 and 19 mm, respectively. On the other hand, the acetone extract and isorhamnetin were active against all bacterial pathogens tested. The work presented herein has...

Evaluation of the antioxidant property of Vernonia Cinerea (L.) LESS. (Asteraceae) using 2.2- Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazine (DPPH) Assay Method2015 •
Vernonia cinerea (Asteraceae) is an annual, erect herb commonly found in roadside, open waste places, dry grassy sites and in perennial crops during plantation. It is located especially in different Asian countries such as India, Bangladesh and Nepal as well as in Nigeria. In Nigeria, the aqueous extract of the plant is drunk by the local people because it is to purify the blood. It is also used traditionally in the treatment of stomach aches, cough and eye problems. The ethanol extract of Vernonia cinerea (Asteraceae) was evaluated for its antioxidant property, using the DPPH assay method, and phytochemical constituents. An acute toxicity study, using animal model (mice). The result of the acute toxicity test of the extract on mice gave an LD50 of 244.95mg/kg. phytochemical analysis revealed that the extract contained alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids, terpenes, glycoside, carbohydrates, steroids, phenols and esters. The concentration of the extract at which 50% of the DPPH ...

Studies on the phytochemical properties and antimicrobial activities of a medicinal plant Vernonia cinerea (L.) LESS (Asteraceae).In the present research work on preliminary phytochemical screening of the Vernonia cinerea which belongs to the family asteraceae indicates that the presence of secondary metabolites. The secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, alkaloids, glycosoids, steroids, phenols, saponins, tannins and resins are known to present in the ethanol and petroleum ether extract of V. cinerea (L.) LESS in minimum quantity. It was also found that antibacterial screening of ethanol and petroleum ether extracts exhibit the maximum and moderate activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis over the control. Hence, it is concluded that the extracts of V. cinerea (L.) LESS possess the potentiality to develop new drugs for the treatment of various human ailments caused by the above said pathogens.

Phytochemical investigation and antimicrobial activity of leaves extract of Vernonia auriculifera Hiern.Context: The genus Vernonia is one of the largest groups in the family Compositae constituting more than 500 species distributed widely in tropical and sub-tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and America. Traditionally the genus is used for the treatment of schistosomiasis, amoebic dysentery, gastrointestinal problems, malaria, venereal diseases, wounds, hepatitis, and diabetes. Vernonia auriculifera Hiern is used for healing wounds as ointment around the injured areas. Aims: To investigate the phytochemical constituents and evaluate antimicrobial activity of leaves extract of Vernonia auriculifera Hiern. Methods: Phytochemical screening tests were conducted to identify the class of compounds present in the leaves extracts of V. auriculifera. Silica gel column chromatographic technique was applied to separate the constituents of the extracts. Various spectroscopic techniques (IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, DEPT-135, COSY, gHSQC, and gHMBC) were applied to determine the structures of isolated compounds. Results: Phytochemical screening of the methanol leaf extract revealed the presence of tannins, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins and absence of anthraquinones, steroids, and alkaloids. Silica gel column chromatography of the methanol leaves extract yielded one compound. The hexane, chloroform, methanol and water extracts were tested against Staphylococcus aureus. The methanol and water extracts showed promising growth suppression at minimum inhibitory concentration of 200 mg/mL. Conclusions: The polar extracts of the leaves of Vernonia auriculifera Hiern possess antimicrobial activity.
