Plants are the most crucial sources of medicinal drugs, especially among ethnic and tribal communities who traditionally rely on them for the treatment of various ailments. According to the WHO, a large percentage of rural populations depend on herbal medicines for their primary healthcare needs so also the people of Tripura. However, in Tripura, the rich biodiversity is rapidly declining. Hence it is the requirement of this time that proper experimental studies should be done on these medicinal plants. With the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, there is an urgent need to discover alternative natural remedies. It is also found from such studies that ascorbic acid, abundantly found in fruits, offers strong antioxidant and immune-modulating properties. This study focused on 10 wild fruits from Tripura, with Daturastromonium, Canavaliagladiata, Terminaliachebula, Manilkarazapota, and Terminaliabellirica showing high ascorbic acid content and notable antimicrobial activity against the test pathogens.
