چکیده
Averrhoa carambola L., belonging to the Oxalidaceae family is one of popular fruits in Bangladesh. The objective study isolate and purify secondary metabolites from A. leaves investigate phytochemical properties, fatty acid, antioxidant, antimicrobial activity, cytotoxicity both leaves. Phytochemical screening revealed presence lignins, quinones, saponins, flavonoids, phenol, carbohydrates, steroids, terpenoids. Repeated column chromatography dichloromethane (DCM) extract yielded three compounds: β-sitosterol, 6,9-dieneoctadeca-1-ol, palmitic characterized using spectroscopic techniques. n-hexane fruit showed palmitoleic acid (20.94%) octadecanoic (48.48%), while (6.47%), (23.23%), behenic (41.70%) predominated For DPPH free radical scavenging IC50 value methanol (MeOH) extracts was found be 16.71 27.30 µg/mL leaves, respectively, which lower than that (IC50 282.46 78.65 respectively) DCM 32.98 39.38 extracts. None significant antibacterial or antifungal activities. Cytotoxicity assay performed on HeLa Vero cell lines, only exhibited line.
