Since ornamental plants have antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, they have been widely used as a therapeutic source to treat a wide range of diseases. Owing to the existence of phytocompounds such as Tannins, Flavanoids, Saponin, and others, Thuja occidentalis and Phyllanthus emblica have the ability to treat diseases such as cancer, respiratory diseases, and some infections. The antioxidant potential of both the plants collected from the Chandigarh University botanical garden was calculated by measuring the IC50 value of plant extracts prepared in water with varying concentrations of each plant extract, as well as their synergistic antioxidant potential using the DPPH assay for free radical scavenging. The antimicrobial ability of both the plants was observed using the Agar well diffusion method and the Microtitre plate dilution method to assess the effective dosage of both the plants by measuring the IC50 for both the plants as well as their blend in the antimicrobial assay. Both plants had antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, but Phyllanthus emblica had a higher therapeutic ability than Thuja occidentalis. Thus, the synergistic effect of both plants was observed, which has not been recorded previously, and exhibited more effective potential than the plants alone, and can be a better option for ailment of certain diseases and can be utilised as anti ageing and anti cancerous drugs than synthetically obtained drugs, as well as a source of recovering from diseases that can be Gastrointestinal such as diarrhoea, a better option for ailment of certain diseases and can be utilised as anti ageing and anti cancerous drugs than As a result, Phyllanthus and Thuja have the potential to be a better potential treatment for the relief and cure of such diseases.
