Evaluation Of Bioactivities Of Annona Squomosa Linn

Diabetes is a disorder in which blood glucose levels rise as a result of the body's cell's inability to adequately utilize glucose. Several drugs are used to lower the blood glucose level. Annona squamosa is an important plant that is used as an antidiabetic, antioxidant, and antimicrobial agent. In the present study, acetone and isopropyl alcohol extract of Annona squamosa have been used to find out its biological property and found that it has potential antimicrobial property which was identified by using Agar well diffusion assay and confirmed by using Minimal inhibitory concentration. Effect of extract on swarming motility of the test pathogens were also tested. The extract of the leaves was tested for amylase inhibition activity using plate assay method with crude amylase enzyme isolated from Bacillus sp. From the findings, it was clear that Annona squamosa L. is an effective bioactive agent which has antimicrobial and antiamylolytic properties.
