Abstract The phytochemical components of many plant species are used in herbalism because they have been scientifically proven to have medicinal characteristics and approved by regulatory agencies including the European Food Safety Authority or the United States the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, as well as phenolic compounds are examples of the bioactive components found in plants that offer health advantages with a demonstrated physiological effect on people. Around worldwide, the resistance of pathogens to conventional antibiotics is expanding. Since more bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics due to their extensive use, current antimicrobial drugs may become ineffective in treating a number of bacterial infections. Medicinal plants have been the most prolific source of medication bio-resources in terms of phytochemicals for conventional medicines, conventional therapies, nutritional supplements, dietary additives, medicinal intermediary substances, and chemical entities for synthesized pharmaceuticals. Spices have been historically used in food as culinary ingredients and food preservatives from the beginning of time. The current study assesses the screening of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) and grapes' phytochemical and anti-microbial activities. The two specimens had been gathered, extracted using various solvents, and qualitatively checked for the existence of various phytochemical kinds. For assessing the antibacterial property against E. coli, the agar diffusion methodology was employed. When employed against E. coli, black grape produced the zone of inhibition with the largest diameter, measured 23.5 mm, while fenugreek produced the smallest, measuring 21.25 mm. The goal of the current study is to identify plants that possess different antimicrobial properties that could be used to analyze and isolate novel phytochemicals to prevent the spread of various infectious diseases, particular in light of the sudden emergence of a growing number of drug-resistant microorganisms and the requirement to create more effective antimicrobial agents.
Keywords Fenugreek, black grapes, flavonoid, tannin, alkaloids, E. coli, antimicrobial activity, chromatography.
