Abstract

The stemming extensive manipulation in regard to native merchandise synthetic substances intergalactic lays directed to detect the unprecedented composites including pharmacological assets. Natural foodstuffs, moreover in their natural form or afterward crude abstraction of their energetic constituents and discovered as irreplaceable sources aimed at drug design. Medicinal plants shows a foremost protagonist in relation to the dispensation of medical management, predominantly amongst a-few rural populace concerning in India. Ethnomedicine prepared using plant extracts and their bioactive composites have been exploited for the dealing of numerous diseases. Our study was designed to nanotechnology based preparation of ethnomedicine and assessing the butchery activity including antibacterial commotion, of carefully chosen medicinal plant Ionidium Suffruticosum used for the control of many diseases. The leaves of the selected plants were collected, shadow dried, crushed and further nano size powdered by mixer mill and then liquidity extracted through maceration process. The prepared nano leaf powder was nano characterized by using UV, XRD, SEM, and DLS as well as subjected to phytochemical tests, butchery activity such as antibacterial, antifungal schedules were evaluated. The ethnomedicine of Ionidium Suffruticosum was most active in contradiction of tested bacterial and fungal strains. The ethnomedicine consists of alkaloids, saponins, phenols, flavonoids, and tannins. These phytochemicals in nano powder form leaf material used to prepare ethnomedicine is to empathetic their tackles of action.
