PHYTOCHEMICAL AND GC-MS STUDIES OF CUCUMIS MELO L SUBSP. AGRESTIS (NAUDIN) PANGALO FRUITS

The objective of present study was to perform preliminary phytochemical screening, quantitative estimation of phytoconstituents, and gas chromatography mass spectroscopy studies of Cucumis melo L subsp. Agrestis (Naudin) Pangalo fruit. The petroleum ether, chloroform, alcohol and aqueous extracts of the dried fruits of Cucumis melo L subsp. Agrestis (Naudin) Pangalo were subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening, preliminary phytochemical screening of fruit extracts showed the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, glycosides, saponins, sterols, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, tannins, proteins and amino acids Quantitative estimation of alkaloids, carbohydrate, fat contents, saponin, total phenolics content and total flavonoids content in the fruit was done. Further, the hydroalcoholic extract was subjected to gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) for identification of chemical constituents. GC-MS analysis of hydroalcoholic extract of Cucumis melo L subsp. Agrestis (Naudin) Pangalo fruits revealed the presence of 39 compounds. The results of this study indicates that extracts of Cucumis melo L subsp. Agrestis (Naudin) Pangalo fruits contains various phytoconstituents responsible for its medicinal properties

ABSTRACTObjective: Phytochemical screening has revealed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, carbohydrates, steroids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins frommethanolic extract of Cestrum nocturnum. In this research, we have identified and confirmed the structures of the constituents by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) from the methanolic extract of C. nocturnum leaves.Methods: Shade-dried leaves were powdered and extracted with methanol by cold extraction procedures and the crude extract obtained was usedfor GC-MS.Results: There were total five components prominently eluted from C. nocturnum extract, viz., ethyl citrate, phytol, 4-isobutylmorpholine,n-hexadecanoic acid, and α-amyrin.Conclusion: GC-MS studies helped to recognize the phytochemical constituents based on their retention time and verification of MS libraries. Infuture, C. nocturnum leaves may be subjected to different extraction procedures and number of elucidating phytoconstituents can be studied for theirethnopharmacological relevance citing the literature.Keywords: Cestrum nocturnum, Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy, α-Amyrin, n-Hexadecanoic acid, Ethyl citrate, Phytol, 4-Isobutylmorpholine.

Peel Oil

The chemical constituents of leaf and peel essential oil of Citrus medica L. were analysed by gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). Nineteen components accounting for 99.9% of the oil were identified in leaf oil. The major constituents are erucylamide (28.43%), limonene (18.36%) and citral (12.95%). The peel oil contains forty three components accounting for 99.8% of the total oil and the major components are isolimonene (39.37%), citral (23.12%) and limonene (21.78%).
