Abstract
Plants are reservoir for potentially useful bioactive compounds, and owing to the rising occurrences of drug resistance to malaria parasites, there is a need to discover and develop new phytochemicals in plant that can be used as antimalarial agents. In this study, we gave a detailed description of the phytochemicals present in both ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of

In this study, we gave a detailed description of the phytochemicals present in both ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of <italic>Callistemon citrinus</italic> (<italic>C. citrinus</italic>) using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis; both extracts were also evaluated for their <italic>in vitro</italic> antimalarial, antitrypanosomal, and cytotoxicity activities against <italic>Trypanosoma brucei brucei</italic> (<italic>T. b brucei</italic>) parasites, <italic>Plasmodium falciparum</italic> (<italic>P. falciparum</italic>) malaria parasites 3D7 strain, and human cervix adenocarcinoma cells (HeLa cells); in addition, the antimicrobial and antioxidant efficacies were determined using standard methods. Both extracts were characterized by a high amount of fatty acids (52.88 and 62.48%). The ethyl acetate extract exhibited a greater activity with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 0.025 to 0.10 mg/mL while the methanol extract ranged from 0.025 to 0.15 mg/mL. Both extracts were bactericidal to <italic>Escherichia coli ATCC 35150</italic> (<italic>E. coli</italic>) and <italic>Pseudomonas aeruginosa ACC</italic> (<italic>P. aeruginosa</italic>). Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical screenings conducted for both extracts revealed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, saponins, steroids, and triterpenoids, fat and oils, flavonoids, phenols, and tannins in varying amounts. Both crude extracts exhibited antitrypanosomal potentials with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 6.6/9.7 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL and antiplasmodial activities with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 8.4/13.0 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL. Conclusion from this study indicates that apart from the folkloric uses of this plant in traditional settings, the extracts possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial, antitrypanosomal, and antimalarial activities and some pharmaceutically essential bioactive components with remarkable antioxidant capacities that may be used in the synthesis of novel drugs for the management of different varieties of ailments.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Ramawat, K G" uniqKey="Ramawat K">K.

In this study, we gave a detailed description of the phytochemicals present in both ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of <italic>Callistemon citrinus</italic> (<italic>C. citrinus</italic>) using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis; both extracts were also evaluated for their <italic>in vitro</italic> antimalarial, antitrypanosomal, and cytotoxicity activities against <italic>Trypanosoma brucei brucei</italic> (<italic>T. b brucei</italic>) parasites, <italic>Plasmodium falciparum</italic> (<italic>P. falciparum</italic>) malaria parasites 3D7 strain, and human cervix adenocarcinoma cells (HeLa cells); in addition, the antimicrobial and antioxidant efficacies were determined using standard methods. Both extracts were characterized by a high amount of fatty acids (52.88 and 62.48%). The ethyl acetate extract exhibited a greater activity with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 0.025 to 0.10 mg/mL while the methanol extract ranged from 0.025 to 0.15 mg/mL. Both extracts were bactericidal to <italic>Escherichia coli ATCC 35150</italic> (<italic>E. coli</italic>) and <italic>Pseudomonas aeruginosa ACC</italic> (<italic>P. aeruginosa</italic>). Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical screenings conducted for both extracts revealed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, saponins, steroids, and triterpenoids, fat and oils, flavonoids, phenols, and tannins in varying amounts. Both crude extracts exhibited antitrypanosomal potentials with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 6.6/9.7 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL and antiplasmodial activities with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 8.4/13.0 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL. Conclusion from this study indicates that apart from the folkloric uses of this plant in traditional settings, the extracts possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial, antitrypanosomal, and antimalarial activities and some pharmaceutically essential bioactive components with remarkable antioxidant capacities that may be used in the synthesis of novel drugs for the management of different varieties of ailments.</p></abstract><funding-group><award-group><funding-source>Tertiary Education Trust Fund</funding-source></award-group></funding-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="sec1"><title>1. Introduction</title><p>Plants are used by humans to ease and treat several diseases. Nowadays, in several countries of the world, traditional medicines are used as a substitute to conventional medicine [<xref rid="B1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>, <xref rid="B2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>]. Countless medicinal plants possessing antioxidant activity now draw the attention of many researchers to investigate their role in the fight against numerous diseases like Alzheimer's disease, cancer, atherosclerosis, cerebral cardiovascular events, diabetes, and hypertension to mention just a few [<xref rid="B3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>, <xref rid="B4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>]. Plants serve as reservoir for potentially valuable chemical compounds which can be used to produce drugs resulting into lead molecules used for current design and synthesis [<xref rid="B5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>, <xref rid="B6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>]. Plant extracts together with their phytochemicals possess antimicrobial properties which are of great importance for therapeutic treatment [<xref rid="B7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>]. Most pharmacological activities of medicinal plants are traced to their secondary metabolites which are smaller molecules when compared to the constituents of primary metabolites like proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. Secondary metabolites like alkaloids, terpenoids, tannins, saponins, flavonoids, and cardiac glycosides from both medicinal and aromatic plants can be used for the synthesis of various antimicrobial and antifungal drugs which are relatively less harmful to man [<xref rid="B8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>]. Plants with medicinal basis are usually utilized by traditional practitioners in most rural areas of developing countries of the world [<xref rid="B9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>, <xref rid="B10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>]. <italic>C. citrinus</italic> is an aromatic and medicinal plant of the family Myrtaceae and a shrub endemic to Australia. It is a potential medicinal plant used in local settings for the treatment of gastrointestinal distress, pain, and infectious diseases from bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites [<xref rid="B11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>]. It is also used as an herbicide [<xref rid="B12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>] while its leaves are used as a tea substitute with a revitalizing pleasant flavour [<xref rid="B13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>]. Extracts from this plant are also used to treat bronchitis and respiratory conditions like cough. It is used as an insecticide, and its essential oil is used as an antimicrobial and antifungal agent [<xref rid="B14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>, <xref rid="B15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>]. Records about the fungitoxicity and antinociceptive activity of the leaves of this plant have been documented [<xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>, <xref rid="B17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>]. It has been established that both human and animal trypanosomiasis adversely affect the sum total economy of Africa via the deteriorating health recorded for human and animals [<xref rid="B18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>]; in addition to this, the unavailability of vaccines that can be used against trypanosomiasis and the increasing cost of commencing and sustaining tsetse fly control have resulted to most infected areas of Africa to be dependent on the use of trypanocidal drugs [<xref rid="B19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>] which has also exhibited some resistance [<xref rid="B20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>] coupled with record of toxicity, inefficiency, and exorbitant price [<xref rid="B21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>]. <italic>Plasmodium falciparum</italic>, the parasite that causes malaria, a disease that creates a higher threat in several parts of the world, have been documented to show resistance to nearly all classes of antimalarial drugs in clinical use [<xref rid="B22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>]. Consequently, there is the need for a safer, efficient, and inexpensive therapeutics that can be obtained from the bioactive compounds from plant. Phytochemical analysis carried out on the leaves of this plant revealed the presence of alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids, and flavonoids [<xref rid="B23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>]. Cock [<xref rid="B24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>, <xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>] documented the antimicrobial properties of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> against different pathogens of Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and fungi strains. Several researchers from across the globe have reported the essential oil components of this plant [<xref rid="B16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>, <xref rid="B26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>–<xref rid="B30" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>]. On the contrary, there is a drought of information as regards the comparative assessment of the antioxidant, antibacterial, antimalarial, and antitrypanosomal activities and particularly the bioactive components of the crude extracts of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> which necessitated this present study.</p></sec><sec id="sec2"><title>2.

GC-MS Determination of Bioactive Compounds</title><p>Presence of bioactive components in the two extracts was revealed by GC-MS examination carried out by multidimensional gas chromatography coupled with a mass spectrophotometer (Shimadzu Japan, 2010) as previously described [<xref rid="B31" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>, <xref rid="B32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>]. This machine possesses polar doubled capillary and nonpolar column (25.0 m × 0.25 <italic>μ</italic>m i.d., 0.25 <italic>μ</italic>m df). Helium of high purity was used as the carrier gas at a flow rate of 0.99 mL/minutes. Starting and final temperatures were 60°C and 280°C at a heated rate of 3°C/minute which was constant isothermally for 6 minutes; solvent cut time was set at 3 minutes; EI mode was 70 eV while linear velocity for the column was set at 36.8 cm/second. Recognition of the bioactive components in both the ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of the plant under study was done by harmonizing their mass spectra data (MSD) with those obtained from both NIST library mass spectra and the literature; furthermore, the retention index (RI) of the individual constituent was correlated with those obtained in the literature.</p></sec><sec id="sec2.6"><title>2.6. Qualitative Phytochemical Screening</title><p>The ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of the plant were subjected to examination for the detection of phytochemical compounds by employing the procedures of Harborne [<xref rid="B33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>] and Evans [<xref rid="B34" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>]. The qualitative detection of the various phytochemicals was carried out by using Mayer's and Wagner's reagents (alkaloids). Other tests carried out include the modified Keller–Killiani test for glycosides, foam test (saponins), Salkowski and Liebermann Burchard's tests (steroids and triterpenoids), stain test (fat and oil), and ferric chloride (phenols and tannins) and lead acetate (flavonoids) tests.</p><sec id="sec2.6.1"><title>2.6.1. Quantification of Total Tannin Content</title><p>Tannin determination was evaluated according to the method depicted by Van Buren and Robinson [<xref rid="B35" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>] with slight alteration as illustrated by Kaur and Arora [<xref rid="B36" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>] using tannic acid as standard. Two hundred and fifty milligrams (250 mg) of the extracts was added to 50 mL of distilled water in a conical flask. The mixture was agitated for 1 h by using a mechanical shaker and subsequently filtered into a 50 mL volumetric flask and made up to the final volume by addition of distilled water. An aliquot (1 mL) of the filtrate was mixed with 4 mL of distilled water and treated with 2 mL (10-fold dilution) of 0.1 M FeCl<sub>3</sub> in 0.1 M HCl and 0.008 M potassium ferrocyanide. The resultant solution was mixed thoroughly and allowed to stay for 10 minutes; the absorbance was measured at 605 nm against the blank. The quantification was carried out based on the 7-point standard calibration curve of tannic acid (20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 140, 200 mg/L) in distilled water. The tannin content was articulated as tannic acid equivalents (TAEs) in milligram per 100 grams of the dry material.</p></sec><sec id="sec2.6.2"><title>2.6.2. Phosphomolybdate Assay</title><p>The total antioxidant ability of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> extracts was examined by phosphomolybdate technique with ascorbic acid as standard [<xref rid="B37" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>].

The retention indexes, molecular formula, molecular weight, peak area (%), and nature of the compounds are presented in Tables <xref rid="tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref> and <xref rid="tab2" ref-type="table">2</xref>. Although, the level of fatty acids found in the two extracts was high (52.88 and 62.48%); it is apparent that the main compounds characterizing both extracts are qualitatively and quantitatively different. Other components of the methanol and ethyl acetate extracts include esters (21.48 and 8.06%), oxygenated monoterpenoids (8.00 and 4.48%), and triterpenes (2.98 and 2.52%), respectively. Oleic acid, an omega-9-fatty acid, was one of the major components from the GC-MS results of the two extracts (6.42 and 28.23%). It is found in various animal and vegetable sources; it is a medium for drugs and other active ingredients in the pharmaceutical industry and acts as an emulsifying agent in aerosol product. The dietary importance of oleic acid in a balanced diet has been largely discussed by researchers, with a serious emphasis on the cardiovascular system. Oleic acid has been found to be essential for the brain [<xref rid="B47" ref-type="bibr">47</xref>] with several health benefits; it is used as an additional constituent in the preparation of cosmetics [<xref rid="B48" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>]. It is capable of thwarting ulcerative colitis [<xref rid="B49" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>], defending cells from free radical damage [<xref rid="B50" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>], reducing blood stress [<xref rid="B51" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>], and enhancing fat burning [<xref rid="B52" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>]. Palmitic acid, a saturated long-chain fatty acid comprising sixteen carbon atoms, was also found abundantly in both methanol and ethyl acetate extracts of our plant of study (32.87 and 13.57%). It is one of the major and mostly spread normal saturated acids found in plants like palm oil, palm kernel oil, odoriferous plants, <italic>Moringa oleifera</italic> seed oil, in animals and animal-derived products like cheese, milk, and meat, and microorganisms [<xref rid="B52" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>]. It is also used in the production of cosmetics [<xref rid="B53" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>]. Stearic acid, a saturated fatty acid having 18-carbon chain, was present in a substantial amount in both methanolic and ethyl acetate extracts of the plant (13.59 and 10.43%). It is also called octadecanoic acid and is mostly employed in the manufacturing of detergent, soaps, and cosmetics like shampoos and shaving cream products. Soap is not obtained directly from stearic acid but through the saponification of triglycerides containing stearic acid esters. Surfactants, cosmetics, and personal hygiene products are obtained from stearic acid [<xref rid="B54" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>]. Stearic and palmitic acids when taken in moderation exhibit anti-atherosclerotic and mild antioxidant activities in animal models [<xref rid="B55" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>]. It is noteworthy to say that squalene, a triterpenoids compound synthesized in the human liver, was also obtained in both extracts at varying amounts. The antioxidant and chemopreventive activity of squalene against colon carcinogenesis has been documented [<xref rid="B56" ref-type="bibr">56</xref>, <xref rid="B57" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>]. It was found in a relatively lower amount in both extracts of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> (2.98 and 2.52%). The various components of both extracts of the plant of study have been linked to different medicinal actions. Eucalyptol, an oxygenated monoterpenoid, was found in an appreciable amount in both the methanol and ethyl acetate extracts of this study (2.22 and 4.55%); this component is known for its bronchodilator, anti-inflammatory, and mucolytic and mucociliary potentials as documented in our previous study [<xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>]. It has been reported to have encouraging effects on the lung function parameters whether for the common cold or continual obstructive pulmonary ailment [<xref rid="B58" ref-type="bibr">58</xref>].

It has been documented that it is preferable to use up to two methods when carrying out a test on antioxidant activity [<xref rid="B76" ref-type="bibr">76</xref>]. The evaluation of the antioxidant activity of the ethyl acetate and methanol crude extracts was carried out <italic>in vitro</italic> through two radical models (DPPH and ABTS), and the antioxidant capacity of the two extracts was measured based on their efficient IC<sub>50</sub> concentration which corresponds to the concentration of the extracts capable of reducing the initial DPPH• absorbance by 50%. The IC<sub>50</sub> of the ethyl acetate extract (2.41 ± 0.25 mg/mL) was lower than that of the methanol extract (1.33 ± 0.24 mg/mL) in the DPPH assay, but the two extracts showed better activity than the standard drug (vitamin C) with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 2.43 ± 0.49 mg/mL. In the case of the ABTS assay, the ethyl acetate extract with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 0.80 ± 0.36 mg/mL was also found to scavenge the radicals less than the methanol extract having an IC<sub>50</sub> of 0.52 ± 0.52 mg/mL.

The high fatty acid content as shown in Tables <xref rid="tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref> and <xref rid="tab2" ref-type="table">2</xref> of both methanol and ethyl acetate extracts might also contribute to the excellent antimicrobial activity recorded in this work because previous documentation by these researchers [<xref rid="B77" ref-type="bibr">77</xref>–<xref rid="B79" ref-type="bibr">79</xref>] have attested to the fact that high fatty acid components might be responsible for the antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral potentials of <italic>Pentanisia prunelloides</italic> and <italic>Helichrysum pedunculatum</italic>. In addition to this, the disparities seen in the antimicrobial properties of both ethyl acetate and methanol extracts might be due to discrepancy in the chemical constituents of the two extracts coupled with some bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, tannins, terpenoids, ether, and phenolic compounds like flavonoids, which are considered to be bacteriostatic and bactericidal as reported in our previous study [<xref rid="B25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>]. <italic>Callistemon citrinus</italic> plant is used in folk medicine to treat gastrointestinal distress, bronchitis, respiratory conditions like cough and as an anti-inflammatory agent.

Both extracts showed better activities than the aqueous seed extract of our previous study that exhibited antitrypanosomal potential with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 11.06 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL [<xref rid="B84" ref-type="bibr">84</xref>, <xref rid="B85" ref-type="bibr">85</xref>] documented that the IC<sub>50</sub> value of ≤20 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL is considered as excellent or very strong, whereas IC<sub>50</sub> between 20 and 60 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL is regarded as moderate, but IC<sub>50</sub> >100 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL is termed not active. This present study did not embark on the isolation of the different compounds that may be accountable for the observed antitrypanosomal activity, but the phytochemicals screening of both extracts showed that alkaloids, saponins, steroids, and triterpenoids, fat and oils, flavonoids, phenols, and tannins were present in the extracts and this might be attributed to the antitrypanosomal activity recorded for these two extracts [<xref rid="B86" ref-type="bibr">86</xref>]. In our previous study, the aqueous leaf, flower, and seed extract of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> showed antitrypanosomal activity with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 11.06, 33.66, and 31.31 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL, respectively [<xref rid="B87" ref-type="bibr">87</xref>].</p></sec><sec id="sec3.6"><title>3.6. Antimalarial Activity</title><p>The methanol extract of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> at a concentration of 50 mg/mL greatly reduced the viability of <italic>P. falciparium</italic> to 0.00% with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 8.4 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig4">Figure 4</xref>). Furthermore, at the same concentration, the ethyl acetate extract appreciably reduced <italic>P. falciparium</italic> parasite to 35.72% with an IC<sub>50</sub> of 13 <italic>μ</italic>g/mL (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig4">Figure 4</xref>). Samples which cause a significant decrease in PLDH to at least 50% were put forward for <italic>pLDH</italic> IC<sub>50</sub> screening. Chloroquine that was employed as the reference drug exhibited an IC<sub>50</sub> of 0.010 <italic>μ</italic>M. The crude aqueous extracts of the leaf, flower, and seed of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> plant from our previous study were tested against <italic>P. falciparum</italic> strain 3D7 parasite and found to be inactive as they were not able to decrease the % viability of the <italic>P. falciparum</italic> parasite [<xref rid="B46" ref-type="bibr">46</xref>]. There is a slight disparity in the antiplasmodial activity of the hydrophilic extract of this present study compared to those reported by Jenett-Siems et al. [<xref rid="B87" ref-type="bibr">87</xref>], who establish that lipophilic extracts were more active than hydrophilic extracts. Aqueous extracts usually prepared by the traditional practitioner are closer in composition to hydrophilic extracts of this study.</p></sec></sec><sec id="sec4"><title>4. Conclusion</title><p>The inhibitory role observed on the various microorganisms and parasites by the crude extracts of <italic>C. citrinus</italic> coupled with the low cytotoxicity is an indication that it contains a broad spectrum of antimalarial, antimicrobial, and antitrypanosomal potentials and can be considered a prospective source of new drugs for the treatment of malaria and tropical ailment caused by microorganisms. This study has also provided rationale for the use of this plant not only in traditional medicine but also as a backup of scientific information to justify its different folkloric uses in traditional rural settings. Further studies are ongoing on this plant to isolate, categorize, characterize, and elucidate the major components responsible for the antimalarial, antitrypanosomal, and antibacterial potencies of this plant.</p></sec></body><back><ack><title>Acknowledgments</title><p>The authors would like to appreciate the Applied and Environmental Microbial Research Group (AEMREG), University of Fort Hare, South Africa, for the antimicrobial analysis carried out in their lab.
