ABSTRACT:
The Hygrophila auriculata found in Cuddalore (Tamil nadu) is regarded as an important medicinal plant. The current investigation assessed the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of H. auriculata methanol flowers extract.The phytochemicals in the plant extract were studied using GC-MS, UV, FT-IR, and NMR. There have been qualitative phytochemical tests performed on actively retorted plants. In DPPH radical scavenging tests, H.auriculata extracts were measured for their anti-oxidant activity in solvents with varying polarities. By using the agar well diffusion technique, these extracts were tested for the existence of antimicrobial activity against the Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtillis, Sarcina lutea and E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans
