A survey was conducted by Jha & A ; Srivastavar ( 2013 ) , the oil was extracted fromArtocarpus heterophyllusseeds. The bacterial strains ofEscherichia coli,Pseudomonas aerugosaandStaphylococcus aureuswere tested and it is found to be sensitive to indispensable oils that were studied and it showed a really effectual bacterial activity with minimal repressive concentration ( MIC ) runing from 1.55 to 5.20 mg/mL.
Another survey was conducted by Hashim et Al. ( 2012 ) that focused on the antioxidant and antimicrobic activity of xanthones that was isolated from the bark ofArtocarpus obtusus.There were three xanthones that was isolated and they were identified as the pyranocycloartobiloxanthone A, dihydroartoindonesianin C and pyranocycloartobiloxanthone B. The pyranocycloartobiloxanthone A exhibited antibacterial activity against methicillin resistantStaphylococcus aureus( ATCC3359 ) and theBacillus subtilisthat was clinically isolated has the suppression zone of 20 and 12 millimeter, severally. However the other two xanthones were found to be inactive.
Morever, Abu Bakar et Al. ( 2008 ) studied the antioxidant activity of the different parts of bambangan (Mangifera pajang) and tarap (Artocarpus odoratissimus) . They analyzed the flesh, meat and Peel fromMangifera pajang; seed and flesh fromArtocarpus odoratissimusfor its entire antioxidant activity, entire polyphenol, entire flavonoid and entire anthocyanins contents. They found out that the seed ofA. odoratissimuscontains higher entire flavonoid content compared to its flesh. Flavonoids are said to hold possible wellness benefits originating from the antioxidative activity, free extremist scavenging capacity.M. pajangandA. odoratissimushave phytochemicals and antioxidant belongingss, particularly in their byproducts which are the meat and the seed and this indicates that they can leave wellness benefits when they are consumed and it should be regarded as a valuable beginning of antioxidant-rich nutraceuticals.
The survey compared the antibacterial belongingss of bark and stipule samples ofArtocarpus heterophyllus( Jack fruit ) ,Artocarpus hirsutus( Wild doodly-squat ) , andArtocarpus altilis( Bread fruit ) extracted with Acetone, Distilled H2O, Ethanol, Chloroform, Petroleum quintessence and Benzene against assorted clinical pathogens likeEscherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhiandBacillus subtilis. The antimicrobic activity survey was carried out utilizing agar good diffusion method. The consequences showed that propanone, distilled H2O, ethyl alcohol, trichloromethane, crude oil quintessence and benzine infusion from both the bark and stipules of selectedArtocarpusspecies possessed outstanding antibacterial activity ( Asha & A ; Ben, 2013 ) .
The antimicrobic, antioxidant, and anticholinesterase activities of ethanolic seed infusions of 21 works species from Brazilian semiarid part were investigated. The antimicrobic activities of these infusions were tested against six bacteriums strains and three barms. The seeds of the workss were air-dried and land in a research lab factory to a reasonably all right pulverization ( atom size ? 0.5 millimeter ) . Powdered stuff ( 500 g ) was submitted to extraction with 99 % ethyl alcohol ( 1.5 L ) at room temperature ( 25–27a??C ) for 3 yearss. The supernatant was removed and filtered through Whatman figure 1 paper. After that, the initial pulverization sample was still submitted to two extractions, which resulted in a concluding volume of infusion near 4.5 L. The ethanolic infusions ensuing from three back-to-back extractions were assorted together so concentrated under decreased force per unit area in rotary evaporator until complete riddance of dissolver, and stored in a deep-freeze at ?20i‚°C. Six extracts presented activity againstSalmonella choleraesuis, StaphylococcusaureusandBacillus subtilis( Farias et al. , 2013 ) .
A survey was conducted to measure the antimicrobic, MIC and MBC/MFC activities of Artocarpus altilis ( branchlets ) . Its antimicrobic activity was evaluated against six infective micro-organisms,Staphylococcus aureus,Bacillus Cereus,Escherichia coli,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Candida albicansandCryptococcus neoformans,utilizing the phonograph record diffusion method at 2mg/disc by bespeaking the presence of the clear suppression zones around each phonograph record compared with the positive control ( Streptomycin and Nystatin ) , while the MIC and MBC/MFC were ranged from ( 250-1000?g/ml ) assayed by utilizing the 96 good home bases. The dried branchlets ofA. altiliswere extracted by utilizing the Soxhlet setup. The consequences suggested thatArtocarpus altilisinfusions have assuring curative potency against bacteriums and Fungis ( Kamal et al. , 2012 ) .
The antibacterial belongingss of partly purified lectins from the seeds ofArtocarpus heterophyllus( doodly-squat fruit ) ,Canavalia ensiformis( doodly-squat bean ) ,Lenss culinaris( lentil ) andPisum sativum( pea ) against the bacteriumStaphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coliandPseudomonas aeruginosawere studied by Nair et Al. ( 2013 ) . The antimicrobic activity was studied utilizing agar good diffusion method. The consequences showed that theArtocarpus heterophylluslectin had an anti-bacterial activity againstSecond.aureus, B. subtilis, E. coliandP. aeruginosawhereas Pea and doodly-squat bean lectin were found to be effectual bacteriostatic agents which reduced the growing of bacteriums and lentil lectin showed the least antibacterial activity.
A survey on the antimicrobic compounds fromArtocarpus heterophylluswas conducted by Ragasa et Al. ( 2004 ) . The research workers used silica gel chromatography of the methylene chloride infusion from the unriped fruit ofA. heterophyllusthat has been freeze and dried produced cycloaretnone 1, cycloartenol 2, and a diastereomeric mixture of 2,3 – butanediol. The antimicrobic trials on the 1-3 indicates that 1 has a low activity againstthe E.coli, P. aeruginosa and T. mentagrophytes, while inC. albicansand theA. Nigerboth have a moderate activity and are inactive againstthe S. aueresand B.subtilis. The cycloartenol 2 has a low activity and a low fungicidal activity. The diasteromeric mixture of 3 exhibits a high activity against theP. aeruginosawhich has a moderate activity againstC. albicans, but it has a low activity against the bacteriumS. aureus, T. mentagrophytes, andA.niger, while inP. aeruginosait has besides the same activity as the standard antibiotic.
The survey focused on the 4 different infusions ofArtocarpus heterophyllusandManilkara zapotaseeds to be extracted and taken for their entire phenoplasts and their flavonoids contents, cut downing power and antioxidant activity ( Shanmugapriya et al. , 2011 ) . The survey analyzed the entire phenoplast and the flavonoid content, cut downing power & A ; antioxidant activity. The research workers concluded from the consequences that they obtained that both the extracted seeds contains a big sums of phenolic compounds and flavonoids, these exhibits high antioxidant belongingss and free extremist scavenging. Both of the extracted seeds from theA. heterophyllusandM. zapotahas a important beginning of antioxidant which helps in forestalling the advancement of assorted emphasis in oxidization and both have an importance in medicative surveies. Both the high contents of flavonoids and phenol have high potency belongingss for antioxidant activity.
