Antibacterial and antihypertensive properties of crude extract of in vitro callus culture of muskmelon (cucumis melo l.)

Muskmelon or Cucumis melo L. is one of the melon families that are widely consumed in many countries. The plant’s ability to adapt to many climate condition makes it available in the market throughout the year. Phytochemicals is one of the important components in plant. In this study, the methanolic...
