Abstract. Ghosh B, Majumder S, Acharyya A, Saha Sarkar Chakraborty Bhattacharya M. 2022. Comparative phytochemical analysis of mature mango leaves from nineteen cultivars Murshidabad district, India. Asian J Nat Prod Biochem 20: 48-55. Mango (Mangifera indica L.), "the king fruits," is one the most popular fruits in tropical regions. This research aimed to qualitatively and quantitatively screen major groups present tree extracted with three different solvents (petroleum benzene, acetone, methanol) belonging polarities determine their antibacterial activity against two Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus) Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae) bacteria. The antiradical scavenging was performed using a DPPH assay. In addition, total phenol flavonoids leaf extracts were also analyzed. Phytochemical investigations showed that contain phenol, tannin, protein, coumarin, terpenoid, alkaloid, steroid, cardiac glycoside. variety phenols flavonoids. Antiradical polar (methanol, acetone) are more potent than non-polar benzene) extracts. inhibit growth E. K. pneumoniae, S. aureus, but no inhibition zone B. subtilis. Based on compounds significant antioxidant properties extracts, might be potential source for developing pharmaceutical formulations drugs.
