    Bioactive compounds (BACs) from plants provide unlimited opportunities for pharmaceuticals and natural agrochemicals development due to vast diversity of secondary compounds. Successful identification and development of natural products from plants necessitates a standard and integrated approach to screen compounds which aids in determination of dose response activity. We examined Peperomia pellucida (herb with fibrous root), Cleome viscosa (herb with tap root), Piper chaba (climber) and Artocarpus lakoocha (tree). In C. viscosa plants, BACs were collected from ‘Root Exudates Trapping System’ made of Buchner funnel and conical flask, while compounds were collected from P. pellucida by a self-designed horizontal tube like glass ware with stopper and funnel at either end. BACs are extracted from stem and leaves dust of P. chaba and A. lakoocha respectively. The basic sequent.. View More»
