Abstract | Objectives: Costaceae family comprises many ornamental and medicinal plants used for different diseases. This investigation includes the phytochemical, histochemical, and Materials and methods: Solvents such as methanol, ethyl acetate, and hexane were used to extract the leaves and rhizomes of both plants. The antibacterial study was executed using the agar well diffusion technique. Results: Phytochemical study confirmed that alkaloids, flavonoids, quinones, and saponins were present in solvent extracts of both plants. The macromorphological studies including size, shape, texture, surface characters, and color, were analyzed. Conclusion: Histochemical analysis revealed alkaloids, proteins, and phenols in the vascular bundles, the cortex, and epidermis of stem, root, and leaves of the plants. Inhibition zones caused by the methanol and hexane extracts showed better antibacterial activity compared to those of other extracts. Future work on the isolation, purification, and characterization of the active constituents and the elucidation of possible mechanisms can be executed. |
