ABSTRACT:
This review tends to investigate the phytochemical profile, antibacterial activity and QSAR analysis of activity of phytochemicals from Argemone mexicana. Various extraction techniques like microwave assisted solvent extraction, ultra sound assisted extraction and conventional techniques has been used to achieve the maximum yield of useful phytochemicals such as berberine, sanguinarine, jatrorrhizine from Argemone mexicana. Antibacterial activity of different extracts from the plant tested against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Argemone mexicana plant extract shows significant antimicrobial, cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic activity due to alkaloid such as berberine and sanguinarine. QSAR modeling is a technique to correlate molecular descriptor such as molecular weight, bond strength, molecular structure with antimicrobial, cytotoxic activity. Thus, QSAR is a useful technique to develop new antibacterial drug for future prospects.
