This is a chronic incurable condition due to insulin deprivation that affect 10% of the population. The number of diabetic people is expected to rise from present estimate of 150 million to 230 million in 2025. For a farseeing time, diabetes has been treated with several medicinal marks or their extract based on the folklore medicine. Infection is also the major problem to treat the wound and wound infections ar most common in developing countries because of poor hygienic conditions. Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcuspyogenes, Escherichiacoli, and Pseudomonasaeruginosa ar some writeant organisms ca exploitation wound infection .Nowadays herbal medicines are highly recommended for the treatment of diabetes inspite of other therapeutic option, which can produce serious side effects.Cassia fistulais an important and emf medicinal plant. The Cassia fistula is the meaty evidences on the anti -bacterial activities of its pod and seed extracts. Cassiafistulapossess antioxidant, antimutagenic, antitumor, hepatoprotective, antitussive,antimicro bial, anti-inflammatory and so many activities. Its antioxidant application plays a role in wellness, health maintenance, and the measure of chronic and degenerative diseases. It is recognized as a rich source of vitamins, flavanoids, tannins glycosides, phospholipids, carbohydrates. The evaluation of toxic properties of Cassia fistula is also crucial when considering public health protection because video to plant extracts can result in undesirable effects on consumers. Acute oral toxicity of C. fistulaseeds extract t shows that oral administration of boisterous extract even at the highest dose of ( five hundred0 mg/kg) resu lted in no mortalities or evidence of adverse effects, implying that C.fistulain nontoxic. Hence, the extract can be utilized for pharmaceutic formulations.The methanolic extract of Cassia fistulaleaves was examined for its wound healing attribute in the form of an ointment.The leaves are laxative and employ externally as emollient, a poultice use for chilblains, in insect distinctnesss, swelling, rheumatism and facial paralysis. Leaves are apply in ulcers, external skin eruptions and eczema. Fruits are used as cathartic, in snake bite and asthma. Barks possess tonic and antidysentric properties. It is also used for skin complaints, leprosy, jaundice, syphilis and heart diseases.So attempt has been made to study the antidiabetic activity of the glycoside containing fractions. In traditional medicine, it is used in the treatment of hematemesis, pruritis, intestinal disorders, leucoderma, diabetes, as antipyretic, analgesic laxative. The innumerable medicinal properties and thera peutic uses of Cassia fistula as well as its phytochemical investigations prove its import nce as a valuable medicinal plant.2.Objectives (To be attained)To determine, antidiabetic and healthful activities of cassia fistula various partsTo investigate the wound healing activity of of various parts of cassia fistula plant To evaluate phytochemical properties, of various parts of cassia fistula .to investigate the antibacterial and antifungal agent activities of Cassia species using disc diffusion methodsTo apply supplement (extract) on selected animal to check diabetes and cholesterol levelTo examine the weight age level of animal onwards and after dose.Analysis and confirmation of phytochemical compounds using the highly advance techniques such as UV, HPLC and GC/MS.To reduce the content of diabetes and cholesterol level on contain animal.3.Literature Survey (Brief survey of past persist done on the topic and any related work with reference, developing need for present study).Th e antidiabetic potential of the total alcoholic extract its ethyl acetate rayon fraction of the bark of Cassia fistula was studied in alloxan induced diabetic rats. The ethyl acetate fraction exhibited significant reduction in blood glucose levels than alcoholic extract was also open effective in restoring the blood lipids to normal levels. The activity was found comparable with standard drug glibenclamide. The present investigation of the plant established some pharmacological evidence to support the folklore claim and effect of glycoside containing fraction that is used as an antidiabetic.1 The plant Phyllanthus reticulatus is claimed to have antidiabetic activity in tribal area. To validate the tribal claim,the petroleum ether and ethanolic extracts of leaves of the P. reticulatus were orally tested at 500 and 1000 mg/kg for hypoglycemic effect in alloxan induces diabetic mice. It shows antidiabetic activity at the dose of 1000 mg/kg. The phytochemical screening of the residu es revealed the bearing of terpenoids glycosides, protein, carbohydrates and absence of alkaloids and steroids.2 Cassia fistula Linn is used extensively in various parts of the world against a wide range of ailments, the synergistic action of its metabolite take being most probably responsible for the plants beneficial effects. This paper reviews the primary and secondary metabolite composition of vegetative and reproductive plant parts and cell cultures thereby derived, with emphasis on potent phenolic antioxidants such as anthraquinones, flavonoids and flavan-3-ol derivatives In order to establish this, it is imperative to measure the markers of baseline oxidative stress peculiarly in human health and disease and examine how they are affected by supplementation with pure compounds or complex plant extracts from the traditional medicinal plants.3 Medicinal herbs are moving from fringe to mainstream use with a greater number of people seeking remedies and health approaches free fr om side effects caused by synthetic chemicals. India officially recognizes over 3000 plants for their medicinal value. It is generally estimated that over 6000 plants in India are in use in traditional, folk and herbal medicine. This article aims to post a comprehensive review on the phytochemical and pharmacological aspects of Cassia fistula.4 C. fistula treated rats showed, better wound closure, improved tissue regeneration at the wound site, and supporting histopathological parameters pertaining to wound healing. Biochemical compendium and matrix metalloproteinases expression correlated well with the results thus confirming efficacy of C. fistula in the treatment of the septic wound.5 The present review focused on plant extracts or phytochemicals role in diabetes management has been tried by many researchers. I have seek to compile a list of total 419 plant species belongs to 133 families have been used for in-vitro and in-vivo studies. The researchers have used distinguisha ble parts of the plant extracts or individual phytochemicalsfor antidiabetic activities. This review brings the researcher data on antidiabetic activities of different plant extracts role in reducing of diabetic problems.6 Cassia fistula Linn. which belongs to family Leguminosae is a medium-sized tree and its different parts are used in ayurvedic medicine as well as home remedies for common ailments. Sequential extraction was carried break using solvents viz. petroleum ether, chloroform, ethanol, methanol and water from leaf of the plant were investigated for preliminary phytochemical and antibacterial property. Results of the study showed that all the extracts had good repressive activity against Gram-positive test organism. 7 Hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol and water extracts from the flower of Cassia fistula (an ethnomedicinal plant) were tested against bacteria and fungi. All the extracts exhibited antibacterial activity against Gram-positive organisms with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) between 0.078 and 2.5 mg/ml. Among the Gram-negative bacteria, only Pseudomonas aeruginosa was susceptible to the extracts. Ethyl acetate crude extract was fractionated using chromatographic techniques. A crystal was isolated, which was substantiate as 4-hydroxy benzoic acid hydrate using X-ray crystallography. It exhibited antifungal activity against Trichophyton mentagrophytes (MIC 0.5 mg/ml) and Epidermophyton floccosum (MIC 0.5 mg/ml).8 Aim of the study is to assess the antimicrobial activity Cassia fistula fruit treacle extracts on some bacterial and fungal strains. Hydro alcohol and chloroform extracts of Cassia fistula fruit pulp were evaluated for the potential antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial activity was determined in both the extracts using the agar disc diffusion method. Extracts were effective on tested microorganisms. The antibacterial potential of the extracts were found to be dose dependent. The antibacterial activities of t he C. fistula were due to the presence of various secondary metabolites. Hence, these plants can be used to discover bioactive inhering products that may work on as leads in the development of new pharmaceuticals research activities.9 In the present study antifungal activity of crude and partially purified extracts of Cassia fistula L. fruit pulp has been assayed against Alternaria solani which is responsible for early blight of potato. Cold and hot extracts of fruit pulp was prepared in different organic solvents, which were afterward recycled by rotary vacuum evaporator. Antifungal activity of different fractions was determined by poison food technique. Maximum percent extractive value was obtained with alcoholic extract. The antifungal activity of the Cassia fistula was due to the presence of various secondary metabolites. Hence, this plant can be used to discover bioactive natural products that may serve as leads in the development of new pharmaceuticals research activities.1 0 The plant Michelia champaca (MC) is widely used in the treatment of inflammation, constipation, dysmenorrhea, ulcers, wounds, fever, and cough. The aim was to evaluate the wound healing property of ethanolic extract of MC flowers in streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats. Wound healing activity was assessed by incision and excision wound models. Results were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance, followed by Tukeys post-hoc test.11Anita Singh et al. studied the plant Cassia fistula Linn. Belonging to family leguminosae, known as Cassia in English, Amaltas in Hindi. The methanolic extract of plant pod, showed the presence of glycoside, steroids, amino acids, flavanoids. The present study was focused to evaluate antipyretic activity of pod of Cassia fistula Linn. The methanolic extract showed antipyretic activity, which was significantly (P. Shashi Kanth, et al. studied on the theme bark of Cassia fistula Linn for laying down preliminary Pharmacognostical identification sta ndards.Cassia fistula Linn .is known as Aragvadha in Ayurveda is an important medicinal plant belong to family Caesalpiniaceae. The stem bark is anti dysenteric, laxative and diuretic.The diagnostic features are the presence of starch grains, stone cells, crystalliferous phloem fibers, uni or bi seriate medullary rays.13Raju Ilavarasan et al. studiedAnti-inflammatory and Antioxidant activities of the aqueous (CFA) and methanolic extracts (CFM) of the Cassia fistula Linn. Bark were assayed in wistar albino rats. The extracts were found to posses significant anti-inflammatory effect in both acute and chronic models.14 M. A. Islam et al represented the concentration of antimicrobial at which there is complete inhibition of growth of organism. In order to determine the MIC of cloxacillin, 10 MRSA were previously detected from 40 clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Agar plate dilution test was used to determine the MIC of cloxacillin.154.Methodo logy.a)Brief description of how research will be conducted.Extracts of Cassia fistla will be obtained by dint of soaking the dried leaves and peel in different solvents( water, methanol,ethanol, n-hexane), concentrating them in rotary evaporator and then phytochemical studies will be carried out.
