Background
The Antidiabetic and Spectral Analysis of Various Extracts of Lilium polyphyllum
Methods
The study involves antidiabetic and spectral analysis, in which inhibition of alpha amylase and alpha glycosidase inhibition was carried out by various extracts of Lilium polyphyllum.
Results
The plant showed a good inhibiting potential of amylase and glycosidase, the two key enzymes responsible for the breakdown of oligosaccharides into glucose molecules. Among the extracts the inhibition of alpha amylase was found to be 54.95% by water extract, 53.01% by ethanol extract and 47.87% by DCM extract. The percentage inhibition of alpha glucosidase was found to be 48.48% by water extract, 48.48% by ethanol extract and 43.85% by DCM extracts. GC-MS analysis involves isolation of, Methyl 2-furoate, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural, Methyl piperate, Piperine, Palmitic acid, Methyl Palmitate, which in turn justifies the antidiabetic properties of the concerned plant. So the plant can act as good source of antidiabetic drug. The water extract is more beneficial than other extracts.
Conclusion
The inhibiting potential of natural products have been found as a good choice for the diabetic patients as they did not led to side effects. Similarly in the above study it had been found that Lilium polyphyllum posses many biosignitures which have the amylase and glycosidase inhibiting potential, among which polar components have more tendency than the less polar.
