In vitro antifungal, anti-oxidant and HPLC analysis of the extracts of Physalis philadelphica
View through CrossRef
The different parts of Physalis philadelphica were evaluated for the antifungal, anti-oxidant and HPLC assay. The methanol extract of leaf showed inhibitory activity against Pencillium digitatum (58% ZI), Aspergillus flavus (95% ZI) and Rhizopus oryzae (96% ZI) at a concentration of 400 ppm. Strong anti-oxidant activities were found in different parts of the plant. The effects of different extraction solvents on the anti-oxidant activity and antifungal activity of the medicinal extracts were observed. The methanol extract from the leaf, stem, fruit and water fractions from the calyx exhibited strong anti-oxidant activity of 94, 89, 88 and 93% respectively. The ethyl acetate extract was found as a best solvent for the recovery of gallic acid in HPLC assay. No correlation was observed between the gallic acid and anti-oxidant capacity of the extracts.
