Phytochemical composition, anti-microbial, anti-oxidant and anti-diabetic effects of Cav. leaves: and assessments.

The aim of this study was to screen the chemical components of leaves and assess their therapeutic attributes with regard to their antioxidant, antibacterial, and antidiabetic activities. The antidiabetic effects were explored to determine the α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory potential of the leaf extract. To identify the active antidiabetic drugs from the extracts, the GC-MS-screened molecules were docked with diabetes-related proteins using the glide module in the Schrodinger Tool.
