ABSTRACT: Hordeum vulgare (Barley) grass is the best functional food for providing nutrition and eliminating toxins from human cells; however, its functional ingredients have also played an important role in health benefits. Flavonoids, saponarin, lutonarin, K, Ca, Se, dietary fiber, polysaccharide, alkaloid, glycoside, tannin, metallothionein and polyphenols are all found in barley grass. Microscopical studies showed that stomata, epidermal cells and trichomes were conducted as part of a pharmacognostic investigation of the grass of H. vulgare. The qualitative assays were done to predict the presence of phenols, tannin and flavonoid content. The Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method was used to screen H. vulgare leaf extract for antimicrobial potential against S. typhi, S. aureus, B. subtilis and E. coli and chloramphenicol was used as a standard. Amongst all the extracts, the chloroform extract of H. vulgare was found to be more effective as its MIC value is almost equal to the standard antibiotic chloramphenicol.

INTRODUCTION: Hordeum vulgare Linn, also known as barley, is a member of the Poaceae family. Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is the world's fourth most important cereal crop, with the highest dietary fiber content. For nutritional peak, barley grass has young green leaves and stems of vegetative growth stage from a seedling at 10 days after sprouting (barley sprout) to elongation stage (barley green). Barley grass grows to be 0.5-1.2 m long and 0.5-0.1 cm thick. Plants contain a variety of constituents, including p-coumaroylagmatine, hordenin, pyrrolidine, luteolin glycoside, flavones glycosidesorientoside and orientin, 2- -Dglucopyranasyloxy, pangamic acid, protein, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus-glucan, phenolic acids, flavonoids, lignans, tocols,
phytosterols and folate. Beta-sitosterol, stigmasterol, campesterol and brssicastrol are major chemical constituents of barley 1. Consuming whole grain barley and its hydroalcoholic extract regularly lowers the risk of chronic diseases. In India, barley has traditionally been used to treat atonic dyspepsia and to treat malaria 2. It is used to treat respiratory and urinary tract infections in Argentina 3.
It is used to treat diabetes in China 4. In Pakistan, barley treats rheumatoid arthritis and joint pain 5. Barley is used to treating dysentery, diarrhoea and gastrointestinal disorders in the United States 6. Barley has antioxidant activity and has the potential to treat circulatory disorders, cancer, obesity, diabetes, arthritis, cholesterol and inflammation 7.
In the present work, we studied the various pharmacognostic parameter and antimicrobial activity of H. vulgare. Traditionally, H. vulgare is used in atonic dyspepsia, respiratory and urinary tract infections, diabetes and as anti-malarial.
MATERIAL AND METHODS:
Plants Collection and Authentication: Hordeum vulgare (Barley) leaves are cultivated in Rohtak, Haryana, and the same was sent to NIScPR for authentication. Dr. Sunita Garg, Head, Raw Material Herbarium and Museum Division (RHMD) CSIR-National Institute of Science Communication and Policy Research (NIScPR), same was identified as Hordeum vulgare L. under reference number NIScPR/RHMD/Consult/2021/3951-52-2, 27/12/2021, Pusa Road, New Delhi.
Solvents and Reagents: Petroleum ether (60-80), Chloroform, ethanol, ascorbic acid, gallic acid, Folin Ciocalteu’sreagent, phosphomolybdenum, etc were procured from CDH. All chemicals used in the study were of all analytical grade.
Pharmacognostic Evaluation: Pharmacognostic evaluation provides useful information about crude drugs' macroscopical, microscopical and physical properties.
Macroscopic Evaluation: Macroscopic evaluation includes a complete evaluation of plants based on their external features. The plant material was evaluated in shape, size, color, odour, texture, and fracture characteristics 8.
Microscopic Evaluation: Microscopic evaluation includes the study of the transverse section and powder microscopy of H. vulgare leaves. After cutting the transverse section (T.S) of the plant was mounted with safranin to study the various characters. In powder microscopy, the plant powder was treated with glycerine, and chloral hydrate: HCL was used to mount various characteristics of plants like fibres, starch grain, calcium oxalate crystals, sclereid and many more 9.
Physicochemical Evaluation: Standardization parameter includes foaming test, ash values (total ash, water-soluble ash, acid-insoluble ash and sulphated ash) loss on drying, extractive value, swelling index crude fibre content were determined by standard procedures 8, 10-11.
Preparation of Extracts: Extraction of leaves of H. vulgare was done by two methods maceration and soxhlation. 500g of coarse powder of leaves of H. vulgare was weighed and treated with four solvents on the basis of polarity (low to high) to get petroleum ether, Chloroform, 80% ethanol, and water extract successively by triple maceration and soxhlation. Total 8 extracts were prepared and concentrated by rotary evaporator. These extracts were stored in an airtight container for further use.
Phytochemical Analysis: All extracts were chemically tested for the presence and absence of different phytoconstituents like alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, glycosides, saponins, proteins and carbohydrates.
Quantitative Analysis: All extracts were tested for the different classes of phytochemicals present in them like total phenolic content, flavonoid content, and tannin content.
Total Phenolic Content: Total phenols present in all extracts viz., Petroleum ether, Chloroform, 80%, hydroalcoholic, and aqueous extract of leaves of H. vulgare were determined using Folin Ciocalteu’s reagent method without any modification 12.
Total Tannin Content: Total tannin present in all extracts viz., Petroleum ether, Chloroform, 80%, hydroalcoholic and aqueous extract from leaves of H. vulgare was determined using Folin Ciocalteu’s reagent method without any modification 13.
Total Flavonoid Content: Total flavonoid present in all extracts viz., Petroleum ether, Chloroform, 80%, hydroalcoholic and aqueous extract from leaves of H. vulgare was determined using the Aluminium Chloride without any modification 14.
Antimicrobial Activity: Antimicrobial activity of all extracts viz., Petroleum ether, Chloroform, 80%, hydroalcoholic and aqueous extract from leaves of H. vulgare were determined using 96-well microtitration plate method, two-fold dilutions of the antimicrobial agent in a liquid growth medium are placed in smaller proportions in 96-well microtitration plate. After that, a microbial inoculum is added to each well. After thoroughly mixing, the inoculation in a 96-well microtitration plate is incubated (usually without agitation) under appropriate conditions depending on the test microorganism. After 24 to 27 hours of incubation, plates were stained with the Alamar blue dye (resazurin), which was a useful growth indicator 15.
RESULTS:
Pharmacognostic Evaluation: Pharmacognostic evaluation was screened to identify commercial varieties, substitutes, adulterants and the quality of drugs. It is a simple and dependable tool for obtaining information about raw drugs' biochemical and physical properties. Methods covered include macroscopic and microscopic analysis, organoleptic the character of plant powder and extracts. Phytoconstituents of plant powder were identified qualitatively and quantitatively with various chemical reagents.
Macroscopic Evaluation of H. vulgare: Macroscopic evaluation was done by studying the external features of the fruit of H. vulgare. H. vulgare in green colour, 0.7-1.8 m long and 0.1-0.6 cm thick and smooth texture.

Standardization of Plant Material: Plants standardization entails confirming their identity and determining their quality, purity, and chemical compounds to establish a minimum standard of quality.
The total ash value denotes the purity of the material. In contrast, acid-insoluble, water-soluble, and sulphated ash values denote the presence of siliceous, earthy and inorganic material in the plant.
The crude fiber content of a material indicates the amount of indigestible cellulose, pentosans, and lignin present. Extractive values indicate the class of phytoconstituents present in plants. The swelling index measures the amount of mucilage in plant material.
The results showed that barley does not contain mucilage. Foaming index is used to identify the presence of saponin in the plant. The results show the presence of saponinin the barley. Table 1 summarized the results of various standardization parameters of the plant.

DISCUSSION: Histological evaluation showed that diacytic stomata is present in theH. vulgare. Standization of leaves of H. vulgarereveled that plant material is free from erarthy material, silicons, carbonates and inorganic material which assuer the quality and purity of the leaves. Leaves cantain 18% of dietry fiber which is good for consumption as its normalized the bowl movement. Literature reveled the presence of phenolic compounds such as benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, ferulic acid vannlic acid, flavonoids (cyanidin, delphindin, pelargonidin, catchin and myricitin, phytosterols like beta – sitosterol, stigmasterol, canpesterol, brssicastrol are present in leaves of H. vulgare. Phytochemicals studies showed the presence of amino acid, carbohydrates, steroides, flavaonids, phenols, alkaolids and tannin in the leaves of H. vulgare. Quantity of the phenols, flavonids and tannin content in the leaves of H. vulgare were also estminated; Barley Soxhlation Hydroalcoholic (BSHA) extract contain the maximum phenols i.e., 87.2 GAE/g, Barley Soxhlation Hydroalcoholic (BSHA) extract contain the maximum flavanoids i.e., 82.08 GAE/g, Barley Soxhlation Aqueous(BSA) extract contain the maximum tannin i.e., 58.75tannin acid/g. Results of quantitative analysis suggested that H. vulgare leaves may have good antioxidant potential as its contain a good amount of phenols and flavonoids. Therefore, H. vulgare leaves were evaluated for antimicrobial activity. Chloroform extract of H. vulgare showed maximum antimicrobial activity amongst all 8 extracts.
CONCLUSION: The data gathered from the current study on taxonomy, macroscopy and microscopy, preliminary phytochemical screening, and phytochemical evaluation of the plant will aid in the correct identification of H. vulgare. It is also concluded that H. vulgare leaves have antimicrobial potential against S. typhi, S. aureus, B. subtilis and E. coli. With MIC values of 62.5, 31.25, and 62.5, chloroform extract of Barley leaves showed the highest antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, B. subtili and E. coli. The current study suggested that H. vulgare chloroform extract could be a good candidate for a natural antimicrobial agent because it has activity against gram-positive and gram-negative microbes.
