Abstract
Medicinal plants are the wonderful source for the development of new therapeutic compounds which contains potential therapeutic value. Clitoria ternatea L. is one such medicinal plant contained medicinal properties. In health care large number of antimicrobials shown side effects but antibacterial from plant origin shown therapeutic efficiency to cure infectious disease with no side effects. Clitoria ternatea L. are rich in large group of phytochemicals namely flavonoids, phenolic compounds and different secondary metabolites exert various therapeutic effects such as diuretic laxative effect, antioxidant, antibacterial ,anti-inflammatory, antidiabetics, antipyretic etc. In this present investigation we have screened phytochemical of Clitoria ternatea L of blue and white verities by employing methanolic extract, which shows the presence of secondary metabolites such as terpenoids, phlobatannins, tannins, flavonoids, and phenols. It’s antibacterial activity against Eschericia coli (MTCC 433) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MTCC 424) were examined by well diffusion method and its pesticidal activity were carried out against Sitophilus oryzae. The results revealed that the white flowered leaves shown more antioxidant potential compared to blue flowered leaves of Clitoria ternatea L. Antibacterial activity was confirmed by the presence of zone of inhibition against the test microorganisms at different concentration of methanolic extract. Pesticidal activity was observed as 100% mortality against Sitophilus oryzae within a hour.
