Implication

Research unveils the antibacterial, insecticidal, and antidiarrheal effects of Annona reticulata extracts, suggesting potential in natural medicine.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the medicinal properties of Annona reticulata extracts, focusing on their antibacterial, insecticidal, and antidiarrheal effects.
  • Phytochemical screening and GC-MS analysis of Annona reticulata leaf extracts.
  • Evaluation of antibacterial activity using the disc diffusion method at 250 mg/mL.
  • Assessment of insecticidal potential against T. castaneum and P. americana.
  • Testing antidiarrheal effects using castor oil-induced diarrhea tests.
  • Comparison with standard drugs like tetracycline and permethrin.
  • Methanol extract demonstrated strong antibacterial activity similar to tetracycline.
  • Insecticidal activity of methanol extract surpassed that of standard permethrin.
  • Aqueous extracts showed good but lower effectiveness compared to methanol extracts.
  • Significant inhibition of diarrhea was observed with both extracts at 400 mg/kg (p < 0.001).
  • Both extracts effectively reduced intestinal volume and transit in GI motility tests.
