Abstract
A variety of secondary metabolites provide a valuable source of treatment for various pharmacological ailments. Grewia abutilifolia is a shrub found in the family Tiliaceae that is also investigated for its nutritional and medicinal benefits. Grewia is reported for its good antioxidant potential, which is applied to protect skin from UV rays. The main goal of this study is to determine the in-vitro sunscreen effect of Grewia abutilifolia based on phytochemical evidence of UV protection. Chemical treatments used to protect skin from the sun have several drawbacks, including numerous hazardous side effects on humans and the environment. The hydroalcoholic, ethyl acetate, and methanolic extracts were studied for their phytochemical, physicochemical, and sun protection activities. Total phenolic content, total alkaloid content, total flavonoid content, and SPF value were all highest in the methanolic leaf extract, with values of 99.20 0.12, 47.661.527, 96.02, and 14.50.01 for total phenolic content, total alkaloid content, total flavonoid content, and SPF value, respectively.
