Description
Summary:Highlights • In vitro scientific evaluation of traditional Coastal Medicinal Plants (CMP’s) was performed. • Methanolic extract of CMP’s showed excellent antimicrobial, antioxidant, antihemolytic properties. • The methanolic extract had also showed good cytotoxicity against A. salina larvae. • Bioassay guided active fraction was identified as flavanoids and terpenoids.
