Abstract
The study evaluate the phytochemical and antimicrobial potential of different extract of Halodule pinifolia. There are many potential groups of seagrass species that produce a variety of secondary metabolites. The seagrass species Halodule pinifolia, which is frequently found along the Thanjavur coastal area, was chosen for its bioactive potential. The agar diffusion method was used to test the seagrass extract's resistance to E. coli, B. subtilis, A. niger, and C. albicans. A aqueous seagrass extract was phytochemically screened and found to contain reducing sugars, alkaloids, saponins, phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and carbohydrates. According to the study's findings, the plant under study has broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties and may be an effective antioxidant for biological systems that are vulnerable to free radical-mediated reactions.
