ABSTRACT
A study of ancient literature indicates that diabetes was fairly well known and well conceived as an entity in India. Plant-based drugs have been used against various diseases since a long time. The nature has provided abundant plant wealth for all the living creatures, which possess medicinal virtues. The essential values of some plants have long been published, but a large number of them have remained unexplored to date. Therefore, there is a necessity to explore their uses and to conduct Pharmacognostic and pharmacological studies to ascertain their therapeutic properties. In fact, nowadays, diabetes is a global problem. Tridax procumbens, is a weed extensively used in traditional medicine as anticoagulant, antifungal and insect repellent. Water extract of leaf and flower contained more proteins when compared to its methanolic counterpart. The same was observed in case of total free phenol present wherein among the methanolic extracts, leaf showed good result when compared to flower. Hydroxyl free radical scavenging assay is an assay to determine the antioxidant property of the sample.
Keywords: Anticoagulant, Antifungal, Diabetes, Insect repellent, Methanolic extract.
