ABSTRACT

Melastoma malabathricum is a highly medicinal herb. Our research focuses on several pharmacological activities such as antimicrobial, anticoagulant, and anti- inflammatory properties. We are primarily interested in anticoagulant activity in order to develop a unique treatment for the rising number of cardiac illnesses in our society. We used extracts of Melastoma malabathricum in various solvents such as hot water, hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol in this investigation. Finally, we discovered that hot water extract has stronger anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory properties than other extracts. Furthermore, ethanol extract has higher antimicrobial activity than other extracts.
