LC-MS/MS Analysis and Biological Activities of Methanol Extract from Sagina apetala Ard.

This is the first study on the investigation of phenolic compounds of methanol extract (ME) of Sagina apetala and examination of its cell-based antioxidant and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The determination of phenolic compounds of ME was performed by LC-MS/MS and 25 main compounds were identified. For the cell-based antioxidant activity of ME, Vero cell line (Cercopithecus aethiops kidney epithelial, Monolayer) was used as the model cell line and ME was showed 61.22% cell viability. ME, also showed insignificant antibacterial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In conclusion, this study in the species provides the basic data for future studies for the species.
