Characterization of flavonoids from fern Cheilanthes tenuifolia and evaluation of antioxidant, antimicrobial and anticancer activities
The present study is designed to identify various bioactive flavonoid compounds from the methanolic fern extract (MFE) of Cheilanthes tenuifolia. Flavonoids derived from C. tenuifolia (fern) possess potent anti-cancerous, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant activities that are responsible for their chemo-p...
