    Ixora coccinea is a notable medicinal plant found in parts of Asia. It has been used traditionally to treat loose bowels, diarrhea, and other ailments. Studies have found that extracts from I. coccinea leaves and flowers have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and wound healing properties. Specifically, ethanol extracts of I. coccinea roots showed significant wound healing and antibacterial effects. Additional studies found antimicrobial activity in 50% ethanol leaf extracts against both bacteria and fungi. Further research on I. coccinea extracts could help establish it as a versatile natural treatment.

    Review of Related Literature and Studies

    Ixora coccinea (I. coccinea) is a notable therapeutic plant generally circulated in East
    Independents and is in jungles and differently in sub jungles at heights of 1300 m above ocean
    level like Caribbean India and Sri Lanka. Root as tinctures is utilized as a society cure in loose
    bowels and diarrhea. The pharmacognostical investigation of the previous reports uncovered that
    the leaf concentrate of I. coccinea obtain antimicrobial, mitigating, against mitotic, astringent,
    narcotic in hiccups, narcotic in sickness, narcotic in loss of hunger, antinociceptive and different
    exercises. Likewise the blossoming part of I. coccinea have hostile to mutagenic movement with
    wide running organic activity. Consequently in the current update the examination of wound
    recuperating and antimicrobial investigations of I. coccinea root extricate against bacterial and
    parasitic strains may prompted extending the I. coccinea as an adaptable medication in the
    current herbal scenario. (Selvaraj et al. 2011)
     The ethanolic extract showed significant (P<0.001) wound healing activity when compared to
    standard drug NFZ with respect to normal control group. Amongst all, ethanolic extract showed
    highly significant antibacterial activity against all bacterial strains used in this study when
    compared to standard. The aqueous extract showed moderate significant inhibition against all
    bacterial strains when compared to standard. All the extracts were shown negligible activity
    against the fungal strains used in this study. (Selvaraj et al. 2011 p. 959 - 963)
    Antimicrobial activity was detected in the 50% ethanolic extract of Ixora coccinea. The effective
    inhibitory concentration of the extract against both the bacterial test organisms and the fungal
    test organisms studied was 125 ug mL -1, beyond which the inhibitory activity declined and the
    organisms started reviving from the effect of the antimicrobial principle. (Latha et al. 1995)
    Study assessed the antimicrobial exercises of leaf concentrates of Ixora coccinea and Commelina
    benghalensis against different Gram-negative (E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. typhi) and Gram-positive
    life forms (S. aureus). Hexane and chloroform extricates showed practically identical
    antimicrobial action with the standard. Study evaluated leaf extract of various hued assortments
    of Ixora coccinea against drug resistant pathogenic bacterial. An ethyl acetic acid derivation
    concentrate of all assortments indicated critical fixation subordinate antibacterial movement,
    particularly against Gram-negative microbes. (Santan, n.d)
