Type: article

Abstract: : The healing properties of plants have been utilized by humans from ancient times to the present in order to combat infections and avert illnesses. Thespesia populnea is a member of the Malvaceae family and is located in coastal and tropical areas of India as well as in arid soil regions. The plant is versatile, with all its components, including roots, leaves, bark, stem, flower, and fruits, employed for their anti-microbial, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fertility attributes. The plant extracts are obtained using various solvents such as ethanol, methanol, water, and ethyl acetate to test their anti-microbial efficacy against urinary tract infections. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of alkaloids, terpenoids, and tannins.
