Evaluation of In-vitro Antioxidant and Antibacterial Properties of Commelina nudiflora L. Extracts Prepared by Different Polar Solvents

The study explored on the commonly available weed plant Commelina nudiflora which has potential in-vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. The different polar solvents such as ethanol, chloroform, dichloromethane, hexane and aqueous were used for the soxhlet extraction. The extracts were ident...
