Abstract

With the widespread use of medicinal plant products in the biotechnological and pharmaceuti cal industries, phytochemical analysis of medicinal plants has grown in importance and challenging.


The present study was aimed at bioactive constituent analysis from selected medicinal plants such as Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (TF), Musa paradisiaca L.(MP), by HR-LCMS (High Resolution- Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry) analysis. TF and MP are highly special plants with a wide range of therapeutic applications. We examined the primary chemical components found in hydro-ethanol extract of seeds of TF and  ethanol extract of fruits & peels of raw MP through HR-LCMS techniques.The compounds of TF seeds extract includes Hellicoside, Kaempferol 3-rhamnoside 7-xyloside, Eupachloroxin, Phrymarolin, Cynaropi crin ,Cetirizine, Gestodene , Ibogaine. The compounds of raw MP fruits & peels extract includes Cyclothialidine , Pimentol, Amaroswerin, Ketotifen, Foeniculoside III, Camellianin A,  Herbacetin 3,8-diglucoside, Cerivastatin ,Quercetin 3-glucoside 7- Xyloside, Imiquimod. Total twenty three compounds of TF seeds extract and twenty four compounds of  raw MP fruits & peels extract were  identified based on their retention time and measured accurate mass. Because of the presence of bioactive compounds in extracts of TF seeds and raw MP fruits & peels , they can be further studied for their biological activity.
