Open full text 2 citations

Abstract

The present study was undertaken to explore the phytochemical screening, antioxidant and anti-bacterial activities of the hydro-methanolic leaves extract of Carica papaya using standard screening methods such as disc diffusion, DPPH methods. In phytochemical screening, Carica papaya leaf extract showed presence of secondary metabolites such as Carbohydrate, phenols, saponins, and tanins. It also showed dose dependent antibacterial and antioxidant activities.
