Phytochemical Investigation and Pharmacological Studies on The Stem of Jasminum Grandiflorum
Jasminum grandiflorum (Spanish jasmine) has been widely used in traditional medicine for its therapeutic potential. This study investigates its phytochemical composition, antifungal, and antipyretic properties to validate its medicinal significance. Chromatographic analysis (TLC and HPLC) identified key bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, phenolic acids, terpenoids, and saponins. The ager well diffusion method revealed strong antifungal activity against Aspergillus aculeatus and Cryptococcus neoformans, comparable to Amphotericin B. The nitric oxide scavenging assay confirmed its antipyretic properties . These findings support Jasminum grandiflorum as a natural source of antifungal and antipyretic agents, with potential applications in herbal medicine and pharmaceutical formulations. The pharmacological studies validates for fever reducing effects and broad spectrum antifungal activity .However, further research is necessary to explore these potential medicinal benefits.
