Abstract

Peltophurm petrocarpum possesses amazing pharmacological physiological actions and other uses, according to a comprehensive literature review. Peltophurm petrocarpum also has a variety of physiological benefits. This made us want to extract a novel component from its solvent using the peltophurm petrocarpum flower. An effective technique for isolating chemicals from peltophurm petrocarpum flowers is being developed. Our plan is to use a Soxhlet device at boiling temperature to separate the material by treating it with pure chloroform. Studies using gas chromatography, mass spectrometry and antibiotic activators helped to better identify the chemical. Glass plates coated with silica gel 60 (E.Merck, India Ltd.) were used for Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC).  GC-MS (Hewlett-Packerd 6890/5973, equipped with an HP-5, operating at 1000 eV ionization energy) was used to examine the active extract. Standard medications were used to test the isolated compound's antibacterial and antifungal properties against a variety of species.
