gram-negative bacteria (i.e., Micrococcus luteus, S. faecalis, B. subtilis, E. coli,
S. aureus, K. pneumonia, Streptococcus viridans, E. coli, and Enterobacter aerogenes. Ciprofloxacin and gentamicin sulfate were used as the standard drug. Cipro-
floxacin and gentamicin sulfate were effective against all tested bacterial strains of
S. faecalis, M. luteus, S. aureus, S. viridans, and E. coli (Negi et al., 2012; Ullah
et al., 2013b; Dhami et al., 2018, 2019; Singh et al., 2020).
The essential oil exhibited more potent antibacterial activity than methanol, the
ethanol fraction, and the ethyl acetate fraction, whereas the hexane fraction was
inactive against bacteria (Joshi and Gyawali, 2012). Another study suggested that
the ethanol extract of Z. armatum leaf has a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity
compared with an aqueous extract. The extracts were tested by the well diffusion
method against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, and K. pneumonia (Akbar et al., 2014). Based
on the biological activities, it was concluded that the essential oil of Z. armatum was
the best source for treating various animal, plant and human diseases and could also
be greatly significant in the food industry (Alam and Saqib, 2017; Dhami et al.,
2018, 2019). Z. armatum was used to treat infectious diseases such as dental prob-
lems, skin infection, diarrhea, dysentery, and urinary tract infection caused by the
pathogens studied (Srivastava et al., 2013; Phuyal et al., 2020b).
16.7.2 Antifungal activity
The essential oil of leaves of Z. armatum was evaluated for antimycotic potential
against various fungal strains such as Fusarium solani, Microsporum canis, Asper-
gillus flavus, Candida glabrata, Candida albicans, and Trichophyton longifusus
(Ullah et al., 2013b ; Prakash et al., 2012; Mehmood et al., 2013; Prajapati et al.,
2015). A general pattern of dose dependency was observed (i.e., the effect became
more prominent with an increasing concentration of the tested samples). The best
antifungal strains were observed against T. longifusus (90%) followed by M. canis
(87%), which was inhibited by fruit n-hexane and aqueous-methanol extract
(Alam and Saqib. 2017). Moreover, the leaf essential oil extract inhibited certain
fungal strains such as M. canis (84%), C. albicans (83%), and C. glabrata (79%).
Most of the results proved that all fungal strains were inhibi ted by the essential
oil obtained from the leaves of Z. armatum (Ullah et al., 2013b). Fruit of
Z. armatum was used as an aromatic tonic to treat fever, dyspepsia, and skin diseases
and to expel roundworms (Medhi et al., 2013).
16.7.3 Antioxidant activity
The antioxidant activity of methanol extract of the leaves was evaluated using DPPH
(2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, reducing power, and phosphomolybdate assay. Ascorbic acid was used as standard. The antioxidant potential evaluated by three assays of different extracts increased in a concentration-dependent
manner. The results of the study suggested that Z. armatum exhibited remarkable
scavenging effects on DPPH and showed maximum reducing ability as an

16.7 Medical significance 351
https://t.me/med1917
antioxidant capacity and total antioxidant activity (Guleria et al. 2013; Mehmood
et al., 2013; Mukhija and Kalia, 2014; Kanwal et al. 2015; Kamakar et al., 2015;
Mukhija et al., 2015; Joshi et al., 2016; Dhami et al., 2019). Various authors reported
that phenols, carotenoids, flavonoids, and ascorbic acid present in the plants are
mostly responsible for strong antioxidant activity. Phytochemical screening of
Z. armatum indicat ed the presence of various flavonoids, flavonol glycosides, alkaloids, lignans, phenolics, terpenoids, amino acids, and fatty acids (Batool et al.,
2010; Brijwal et al., 2012; Guleria et al. 2013; Mukhija and Kalia, 2014; Mukhija
et al., 2015; Akbar et al., 2014).
In this study, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol and chloroform extracts of
the plant were evaluated for their free radical scavenging property using
different in vitro models. In vitro antioxidant potential was evaluated by using
DPPH, nitric oxide scavenging assay and ferric reducing power assay. Petroleum
ether and ethyl acetate extracts of the plant have shown potent antioxidant potential
(Mukhija et al., 2015; Mukhija and Kalia, 2014). Methanolic lea f extract and ascorbic acid exhibited highest superoxide radical scavenging, phosphomolybdate assay,
reducing power and antioxidant capacity at the highest concentration (Alam et al.,
2019; Guleria et al., 2013; Kanwal et al., 2015; Karmakar et al., 2015; Khan
et al., 2020; Phuyal et al., 2020a; Singh et al., 2020). The entire plant was used as
a good flavouring agent and good source of phytotherapy as natural herbal antioxidants and highly acceptable in selected Indian food products (Joshi et al., 2016;
Phuyal et al., 2020a; Sabir et al., 2017; Singh et al., 2020). It was observed that
the methanolic extract of fruit exhibit maximum inhibitory activity and the lipoxygenase enzymes are also associated with the inflammatory conditions like asthma,
psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, colitis and allergic rhinitis (Alam et al., 2019).
16.7.4 Anthelmintic activity
Aqueous, petroleum ether, and methanol extracts of the seeds of Z. armatum were
tested against Pheretima posthuma (earthworm). Piperazine citrate was taken as
the standard. The extracts caused paralysis and death of the worms even at the
low concentration of 10 mg/mL. The methanol extract was the most potent (Mehta
et al., 2012). The aqueous extract of seeds was tested against Haemonchus contortus
worms. Levamisole was taken as the standard. The extract showed complete (100%)
mortality at a concentration of 100 mg/mL at an 8-h exposure (Singh et al., 2016).
16.7.5 Anticholinergic, antihistaminic, and antiserotonergic
The n-hexane extracts of Z. armatum seeds induced concentration-depend ent inhibition of isolated ileum of rat and guinea pig and fundus of rat. The n-hexane extracts
of Z. armatum seeds (1000 mg/mL) were significantly higher than the EC
choline, 5-hydroxytryptamine, and histamine (Saikia et al., 2017). The essential oil
of Z. armatum caused bronchorelaxation and demonstrated antiasthmatic properties;
this was tested at two dose levels (200 and 400 mL/kg). Dexamethasone is an effective antiasthmatic agent used to treat asthma (Sharma et al., 2018).
