Kewda (Pandanus odorifer) Flower Derived Phytochemicals against Salutaridine Reductase of Hepatitis Virus Causing Hepatitis A

ABSTRACT

Pandanus odorifer plant extract is traditionally used to cure Hepatitis A. It is caused by Hepatitis virus. Molecular docking method applied using “Biovia Discovery Studio”. “High positive values of -CDOCKER energy and -CDOCKER interaction energy” suggested that 1, 2, 3-benzene triol can effectively deactivate the salutaridine reductaseenzyme thereby interrupting the life cycle of the organism.
