Antihyperglycemic Activity, Free Radical Scavenging Activity and FTIR of Syzygium Cumini Linn Pulp Dried Extract Namrata Dwivedi * , Kalpana Trivedi, Indra Prasad Tripathi Department of Biological Science, Mahatma Gandhi Chitrakoot Gramoday Vishwavidyalaya Chitrakoot, Satna (MP), India ABSTRACT Syzygium Cumini is commonly known as black plum or “jamun” is an important medicinal plant in various traditional systems of medicine. It is effective in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The plant is rich in compounds containing anthocyanins, glucoside, ursolic acid, beta sitosterol, ellagic acid, isoquercetin, kaemferol and myrecetin. The seeds are claimed to contain alkaloid, jambosine, and glycoside jambolin or antimellin, which halts the diastatic conversion of starch into sugar. This reviewed that validate antidiabetic effect of jamun has been primed to describe the existing data on the information on Ant hyperglycemic Activity, Free Radical Scavenging Activity and FTIR of Syzygium Cumini Linn Pulp Dried Extract. Keywords: Anthocyanins; Syzygium Cumini; Diabetes; Antimellin INTRODUCTION The deficiency of insulin secretion and action causes disorder in endocrine system and it disturbed carbohydrate metabolism known as diabetes mellitus Syzygium Cumini Linn (family Myrtaceae) commonly known as ‘‘Jamun” is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. S. cumini has been valued in ayurveda and unani system of medication for possessing variety of therapeutic properties, which is widely used in folk medicine for the treatment of various diseases. S. Cumini leaf galls, commonly known as “Karkatshringi” in sanskrit, are extensively used in ayurveda and several scholars of Indian like Charak, Sushrutha, Bagvatta and many others have explained in literature about various Indian medicinal plants. Many antidiabetic plants have been reported in the Indian literature. The black jamun is an important indigenous plant of the family Myrtaceae originally from Indonesia and India. The ripen fruits are purplish black in colour due to the presence of anthocyanins. Fruits are rich in minerals and have high antioxidant property which contributes to many health benefits. Jamun is highly perishable, therefore, very difficult to store and market at distant places [1]. Jamun seeds are used in traditional medicine. The presence of oxalic, tannic, gallic acids and other alkaloids create one to feel such an astringency taste. The secondary metabolites have been reported to be potent free radical scavengers [2,3]. Phenolic and flavonoid compounds present in S. Cumini are responsible for antioxidant and anti- inflammatory activities [4]. Phytochemicals, Antioxidant and Antidiabetic Potential of Syzygium Cumini Linn Pulp Dried Extract Investigated the presence of phytochemical from the ethanolic and aquous extracts of these five parts leaf, stem bark, ower, root and seeds of the Syzygium Cumini [5]. Five parts viz, leaf; stem bark, ower, root and seeds extracts of Syzygium Cumini were investigated for their phytochemicals and HPTLC analysis. The plant extract contains carbohydrates, proteins, alkaloids, avonoids, tannins, steroids, tri-terpenoids, phenol and saponin [6]. studied that showed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, triterpenoids, steroids, saponins, flavonoids, tannins but carbohydrates in the absent in extracts of Syzygium Cumini seed [7]. Revealed that total polyphenol and DPPH of Syzygium aromaticum. DPPH antioxidant activity showed here (2.2 ± 0.1). The relation of DPPH activity and α-glucosidase inhibition of ethyl acetate extracts are given significant proportional results (r=0.833, p<0.001), here showed moderate correlation was amylase inhibition activity (r=0.419, p<0.05) [10]. Concluded that phytochemicals of Syzygium Cumini leaf extracts using various (ethanolic and methanolic solvent) results showed that that both the contained most of the active phytoconstituents, come behind by the ethyl acetate, hexane, than aqueous extracts, Journal of Vaccines & Vaccination Mini Review Correspondence to: Namrata Dwivedi, Department of Biological Science, Mahatma Gandhi Chitrakoot Gramoday Vishwavidyalaya Chitrakoot, Satna (MP), India, Tel: +91 7489580123; E-mail: namratadwivedi5@gmail.com Received date: July 04, 2020; Accepted date: July 17, 2020; Published date: July 25, 2020 Citation: Dwivedi N, Trivedi K, Tripathi IP (2020) Antihyperglycemic Activity, Free Radical Scavenging Activity and FTIR of Syzygium Cumini Linn Pulp Dried Extract.
