ABSTRACT

The aim of the study was carried out to identification of possible bioactive compounds and to analyse the pharmacognostic evaluation and of ethanolic extracts of Syzygium cumini (L.) and Syzygium aromaticum (L.) by GC-MS method, the mass spectrum and peak values were matched with national institute of standard technology (NIST) library. There are bio active compounds from each plant extract were identified and analysed of their potential activities of their compounds were pharmacognostic valuable and further investigation need for the production improved novel drugs and lead to therapeutic use for various infectious diseases .

Keywords: Syzygium cumini (L.), Syzygium aromaticum (L.), GC-MS study, bioactive compounds, infectious diseases.
