Phytochemical profiling and GC-MS analysis of bioactive compounds in methanolic crude extract of Beta vulgaris (BV) root from Bangladesh.

ABSTRACT: Beta vulgaris (BV) is distributed worldwide and has long been used as a culinary and in traditional medicine to treat diseases. The objective of the present study was to investigate the phytochemical constituents and the chemical fingerprinting of BV root of Bangladeshi origin. We performed qualitative conventional lab tests of colorimetric reactions with specific reagents to identify the presence of various phytochemical classes like alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, carbohydrates, reducing sugars, tannins and steroids. To gain comprehensive insights into the chemical composition, we used gas chromatography and mass spectroscopy analysis (GC-MS). Finally, we employed computational methodologies, leveraging in‑silico physicochemical properties, pharmacokinetics, drug-likeness and medicinal
