Exploring the Antimicrobial Mechanism of Morinda citrifolia: An Integrated Phytochemical and Molecular Docking Approach

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The present study investigates the antimicrobial potential of Morinda citrifolia through in vitro evaluation and molecular docking. Antimicrobial assays revealed significant inhibitory activity against selected pathogenic microorganisms, indicating the presence of active phytoconstituents. Identified bioactive compounds were subjected to molecular docking against key bacterial target proteins, demonstrating strong binding affinities and potential inhibitory mechanisms. The combined results highlight M.citrifolia as a promising candidate for developing novel antimicrobial agents.
