(mg/kg, p.o.) of the roots of C. Procera can reduce subacute inflammation by inter- rupting the metabolism of arachidonic acid in both the cotton pellet and paw edema models [].
. Antipyretic activity
Calotropis procera may become a more widely available and effective antipyretic medication, according to the study. In contrast to aspirin, C. procera’s ethanolic extract of the aerial parts, aqueous extract of the flower, and aqueous solution of the dry latex have all demonstrated potent antipyretic effects in animal models [].
. Anticancer activity
Cardenolide, a novel compound present in C. procera. According to Quaquebeke []. C. procera has strong anti-tumor properties in vitro and a high level of tolerance in vivo. Similar to this, di-(-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) isolated from C. procera demonstrated anti-tumor activity, and copper nanoparticles synthesized using an aqueous extract of C. procera latex demonstrated cytotoxic [] and cytostatic activity against tumor cells and cell lines [].
. Antimalarial activity
The alcoholic extract of C. procera flower extract exhibited a higher level of mos- quito repellent activity against the female Culex quinquefasciatus mosquito as compared to the petroleum ether and chloroform extracts []. This study suggests the role of C. procera as a natural biocide for mosquito control. The aqueous extract of CG leaves at , , , and ppm exhibited larvicidal, mosquito-repellent, and ovicidal activity against Culex gelidus and C. tritaeniorhynchus mosquitoes. The extract showed dose-dependent larvicidal activity with a motility rate of ±. (LC=.) against C. gelidus and ±. (LC=.) against C. tritaeniorhynchus.
. Anti-obesity activity (pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity)
The purified di-terpenoid fraction from the root extract of C. procera inhibits pancreatic lipase (PL) with an IC of .mg/mL. The purified di-terpenoid frac­tion was shown to have a considerably lower inhibition constant (Ki) than the positive control (Orlistat; IC: .μM). The inhibition was determined to be competitive based on kinetic data. This explains the plant’s antihyperlipidemic actions [].
. Antiviral activity
Globally, viral illnesses are regarded as one of the most significant hazards to people, animals, and plants. The outbreaks of deadly viral diseases like COVID-, which pose a serious threat to human survival on a global scale, also call for the development of vaccines or other anti-toxin treatments. This is in addition to the

effects of currently available antiviral drugs []. Research has shown the potential role of medicinal plants and their bioactive compounds as antiviral agents [,].
. Toxicity
In addition to its well-documented traditional uses across many nations,
is categorized as a weed, a toxic plant and a poisonous plant [–]. The herb was formerly employed as an abortifacient. The plant leaves also cause ocular toxicity if splashed/entered accidentally. It causes ocular Keratouveitis accompanied by inflam­mations, corneal edema, irreversible endothelial cell damage and vision deterioration [,,]. Ruminants have experienced harmful effects after consuming C. procera leaves (CPL) [].
The leading cause of the plant’s toxicity is the presence of poisonous substances like
toxic cardenolides in its latex. Similar to those of Digitalis, the cardiac glycosides of
C.procera severely increase heartbeat and finally result in animal mortality. CPL’s pH is
., which is harmful to the animal’s mucous membranes []. Additionally, C. procera thrives in various soils, including those contaminated with heavy metals and found along roadsides. As a result of the plant’s remarkable capacity to absorb diverse chemi­cal components, such as heavy metals, it bioaccumulates more significant levels of dangerous heavy metals like lead (Pb), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni) and cadmium (Cd) as well as other environmental contaminants which increase the plant’s toxicity [].
C. procera
. Conclusion
The
having pharmacological and traditional uses this is the plant that is forgotten as the time passes. But now many scientists have worked to evaluate its phytochemicals and pharmacological property. The pharmacology, traditional uses, toxicology and use of secondary metabolites has been discussed in this chapter. C. procera is the richest source of phytochemicals and screening its phytoconstituents will give a new avenue to investigate its therapeutic role. In vivo and in vitro study of C. procera was well documented in literature but human safety and efficacy yet to be done and clinical trials need to be done to confirm its standard dosage.
C. procera is one of the globally distributed medicinal plants. Despite of

Abstract
Melaleuca bracteata var. Revolution Gold (a cultivar of Melaleuca bracteata) is an ornamental plant, which has been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of several diseases. Till moment, information is scanty on the biological activities of the essential oil from the plant. The water-distilled essential oil was analyzed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Antibacterial activity of the oil was evaluated by paper disc diffusion and micro-dilution methods. Cell membrane damage was assay using cytosolic lactate dehydrogenase released method. Platelet aggregation inhibitory activity was separately evaluated on Adenosine diphosphate, collagen, epinephrine and thrombin induced aggrega­tion. Thirteen components representing 95.3% of the total oil were identified from the essential oil. Phenylpropanoids (82.9%) constitute the predominant class of compounds in the oil. On the whole, the oil displayed strong antibacterial action towards Staphylococcus aureus, moderate activity on Bacillus cereus and some strains of Escherichia coli. The lactate dehydrogenase released (0.78–47%) depicted the oil to exhibit low levels of membrane damage. The percentage platelet aggregation inhi­bition for the four platelet agonists was concentration dependent with thrombin > collagen > ADP > epi-nephrine. The acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity (9.16%) indicated that the essential oil was not effective against the enzyme.

. Introduction
Melaleuca bracteata L. (Syns: Melaleuca daleana Blakely, Melaleuca glaucocalyx Gand. or Melaleuca monticola J.M.Black) and commonly known as black tea tree, honey myrtle, golden bottle brush amid other names, belongs to the Myrtaceae family [1]. Melaleuca bracteata var. Revolution Gold (popularly known as Melaleuca bracteata var. “Johannesburg Gold”) is a garden cultivar of Melaleuca bracteata and widely found in woodlands, open forests along watercourses and on the edges of swamps as well as garden and urban street ornamental plant in South Africa [1, 2]. Melaleuca bracteata var. Revolution Gold is a shrub or medium-size tree growing as tall as 5m, with dark gray stem-bark. The leaves (ca 7cm by 25cm) with intact mar­gin are evergreen, alternately arranged, ovate to lanceolate. The flowers in clusters vary from white to pink-red, pale yellow or greenish, with small petals and bundle of stamens. The fruits (2–3mm) with numerous seeds of about 0.5–0.8mm long aggregated into cylindrical stacks along the twigs [1, 2]. In traditional medicine, M. bracteata var. Revolution Gold has been reported used for treatment and prevention of numerous diseases [1, 2]. Previous studies on different extracts of M. bracteata var. Revolution Gold revealed the isolation of betulinic acid, oleanolic acid, maslinic acid and their derivatives, with many possessing antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet aggregation, antifungal, antiulcer antioxidant, anti-sickling and cyto­toxic activities [3–7].
As a continuation of our studies on the flora of South African species [8–11], we reports the chemical composition, antibacterial, membrane damage, acetylcholin­esterase and antiplatelet aggregation activities of essential oil of Melaleuca bracteata var. Revolution Gold collected from KwaDlangezwa area in uThungulu District Municipality, KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa.

. Oil isolation
Air dried and squeezed leaves of
M. bracteata var. Revolution Gold (300g) were
subjected to hydrodistillation in an all glassed Clevenger-type apparatus for 3h according to an established procedure [12]. The distillate isolated was collected over water in the receiver arm of the apparatus into clean and previously weighed sample bottle, and refrigerated until further analyses.
. Gas chromatography
Gas Chromatography analyses was carried out using an Agilent Gas Chromatography
(7890A) equipped with Agilent 190,915 capillary column (30m × 250 μmid; film thickness 0.25 μm) and FID detector. Oven temperature was programmed from 45°C (after 2min) to 310°C at 5°C/min and final temperature was held for 10min. Injection
and detector temperatures were 200 and 240°C respectively. Helium was used as the carrier gas at a flow rate of 1ml/min. Diluted oil (0.1 μl) was injected into the GC and
peaks were measured by electronic integration method. n-Alkanes were runs at the same condition for retention indices determination.
. Gas chromatography: mass spectrometry
Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses was performed on an Agilent
Gas Chromatography (7890A) equipped with an Agilent 190,915 capillary column (30m × 250 μmid; film thickness 0.25 μm) interfaced with an Agilent mass spec-
trometer system (5975C VL MSD with Triple Axis Detector). Temperature oven was programmed from 70 to 240°C at the frequency of 5°C/min. Ion source was set at 240°C with electron ionization at 70eV. Helium was used as the carrier gas at a flow rate of 1ml/min. Diluted oil in hexane (1.0 μl) was injected into the GC/MS with the
scanning ranges between 35 to 425amu.
. Identification of compounds
Constituents were identified on the basis of their retention times (RT) along with
co-injection reference under identical experimental conditions. Comparison of their mass spectra was also check with those of NIST [13]. Furthermore, home-made MS library built up from pure substances and components of known essential oils was compared with literature [14].
. Antimicrobial activity
. Microorganisms
The acquired test microorganisms from the culture collection of the Applied
and Environmental Microbiology Research Group (AEMREG), University of Fort Hare, Alice, South Africa were used in the antimicrobial activity. The microorgan­isms included referenced Bacillus cereus (ATCC 10702), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC
