The antioxidant, antidiabetic, antimicrobial and anticancer constituents of Artemisia species

species are characterised by their antioxidant, anticancer, antibacterial, and anti-diabetic activities thanks to their phenolic and flavonoid content. These phenolic and flavonoid chemicals scavenge free radicals and reduce oxidative stress, which helps to guard against many diseases brought on by the buildup of free radicals and increased oxidative stress. In addition to acting as an antibacterial agent, it assisted in preventing cancer, hyperglycaemia, and diabetes. Antioxidant research has generally drawn attention due to its major contribution to the fight against numerous chronic illnesses, such as cancer and cardiovascular disorders. Several techniques were used to measure the enzymatic antioxidants (glutathione reductase, catalase, peroxidase, ascorbate oxidase, guaiacol peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase) in addition to the nonenzymatic antioxidants such as total phenolic acids, total polyphenol, ascorbic acid, total flavonoids and anthocyanin. Artemisinin (endoperoxide 1,2,4-trioxane ring.) is the main therapeutic constituent of
