It suggested that this plant can be used as bioactive natural products to inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

This plant is a potential pharmaceutical source of potent secondary anticancer metabolites; it shows inhibition of cancer cells through apoptosis induction; it will inhibit cancer cell growth as well as initially inhibit non-cancer cells.
