Abstract

A variety of bioactive substances from plants are used to treat and cure diseases. Only herbal therapy can effectively treat illnesses. Phytoconstituents, which are stronger and have a range of biological effects, are found in plants. The Ixora species is a perennial shrub of the Rubiaceae family. More than 500 species of this flowering plant are cultivated extensively in Florida and the rest of the United States. Ixora coccinea is only one of many species of the Ixora plant. The biological characteristics of Ixora alba, Ixora philippinensis Merr, and Ixora chinensis Lamk are examined. Analgesics, antioxidants, anti-microbial, and anti-cancer are some of these qualities. Among the several phytoconstituents present in Ixora plants are rutin flavonoids, -sit sterol, triterpenoid ursolic acid, D-mannitol, proanthocyanidins, quercetin, kaempferol, and anthocyanin glycosides. Highlighting the photochemistry and pharmacological traits of Ixora species and their potential uses in next Nano phytosomes research are the goals of this review
