Abstract
Turnera subulata are bright common garden flowers that are grown in Asian regions. Mostly flowers of several kinds have medicinal properties and applications. This is as one of a kind that contains compounds that has medicinal application. The present studies are targeted to investigate the phytochemical composition through GC-MS technique, antimicrobial activity and antitumor activity via MTT assay against Hep G2 (or HepG2), a human liver cancer cell line. Ethanol (EtOH) extracts has reasonable antitumor activity against Hep G2 for period of 24 h and 48 h and the aqueous part was non-reactive. From gas chromatography‑mass spectrometry (GC-MS), a sum of 27 identified natural compounds exhibiting against cancer cell. Some traces of flavouring agents and antifungal agent with very low GC-MS peak lengths are too observed furaneol (2,4-Dihydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furan-3-one), benzeneacetaldehyde, benzoic acid and undecanoic acid. Hence, the result that indicates the flavouring agents including flavonoids along with phenolic and other acidic compounds have important characteristic property in reducing and treating against cancer cells.
Highlights
There are thousands of flower varieties of impressive properties and applications
As from the literature survey and study the T. subulata was not experimented on anticancer so far, the present study done for antitumor activity against Hep G2 human liver cancer cell line
In vitro antitumor activity antitumor activity was performed for T. subulata extract through in vitro
Summary
There are thousands of flower varieties of impressive properties and applications. Turnera species has wide medicinal application, among them Turnera subulata that are grown in tropical America including south-east Asia and it is available. It is used as an herbal medicine for treating respiratory, reproductive system, digestion in the human body. Yellow alder flower like Turnera ulmifolia having antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticancer activities [1,2,3]. Other than Turnera there are other species like Gundelia tournefortii that has anticancer properties [7]. As from the literature survey and study the T. subulata was not experimented on anticancer so far, the present study done for antitumor activity against Hep G2 human liver cancer cell line
