Identification of bioactive compounds in ethanol extract of Beta vulgaris using GC-MS analysis

Author(s):

Abstract:

The resistance to therapeutic drugs increases the demand to discover novel chemical compounds with potential potency. Medicinal plants provide a wide window of opportunities to discover new drug leads through a screening process with scientific validation and optimization. Hyphenated techniques in drug discovery made it easier to isolate the structural information. It allows analysts to distinguish between known and unknown compounds. Advancing the research, Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy was employed in this study to identify the bioactive compound within the ethanolic extract, marking a notable progression. The spectrum confirms the presence of various medicinal components including heneicosane, n-decyl-N'-isopropyl, Octacosane, Eicosane, Hexatriacontane, 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, bis(2-ethylhexyl) ester, Tetracosane, Heptacosane, 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, diundecyl ester, Di-isooctyl phthalate, Eicosane, 2-methyl, Nonacosane, Tetracosane, 11-decyl, responsible for the antimicrobial activity, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxicity, antimalarial, anti-inflammatory property of beetroot thus could play vital roles in health care programs.
