\begin{abstract}
To evaluate the leaf volatile constituents of essential oil of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} and evaluate their anti-oxidant and anti-fungal activity. The Chemical composition of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} essential oil was determined using GC-MS and FT-IR analytical techniques. The antioxidant activity was evaluated using DPPH scavenging assay. The anti-fungal effect was tested against two potential pathogenic fungal strains - \textit{Candida albicans} and \textit{Malassezia furfur} using agar well diffusion method. The essential oil was profiled by the presence of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons 90.67\% of their total composition followed by oxygenated monoterpenes and monoterpene hydrocarbons as 5.3\% and 2.1\% respectively. The GC-MS results showed 14 compounds from \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} leaf EO representing 98.07\% of the total oil composition. The major component was identified as a-Gurjunene (35.94\%), a-bisabolol (10.82\%) and G-selinene (4.26\%). EO showed remarkable antioxidant activity values of IC50 = 59.78\ensuremath{\pm} 3.21\ensuremath{\mu}g/ml by DPPH scavenging assay. The essential oil showed interesting anti-fungal effects against two pathogenic fungal strains. The most sensible strains to \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} EO was \textit{Malassezia furfur} (32.00\ensuremath{\pm}0.50mm) compared to that of \textit{Candida albicans} (15.00\ensuremath{\pm}1.25mm). Hence, \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} EO has potential application against fungal infection and oxidative stress-related diseases. However, further investigations are necessary to isolate and investigate the action mechanism of these bioactive compounds.

\section{Introduction}
Oxidative stress is a concern in between free radicals and cancer prevention agents. More radicals present in our body can destroy because cancer prevention agents, the free radicals then start to harming fatty tissue, DNA and proteins. This results in numerous diseases and disorders such as aging, cancer, atherosclerosis, cirrhosis ad cataracts \unskip~\citep{954363:20981654}. Though the synthetic antioxidants are in-expensive compared to natural anti-oxidants, their usage has shown to have several side effects, including their deposition in adipose tissues while the natural anti-oxidants could be completely metabolized \unskip~\citep{954363:20981655}. This has paved the way for may researches focusing on the secondary metabolites of medicinal plant's majority essential oils as novel anti-oxidants source. On the other hand, anti-fungal treatment is a focal segment of patient administration for acute and chronic mycoses. However, treatment decisions are limited due to the meagre number of anti-fungal medication classes. Clinical administration of fungal illnesses is additionally undermined by the rise of anti-fungal drug resistance, which disposes of accessible medication classes as treatment alternatives. When thought about an uncommon event, against anti-fungal medication, the opposition is on the ascent in some high-hazard clinical focuses. Most concerning is the advancement of multidrug resistance hard-headed to a few unique classes of against anti-fungal agents, particularly among common \textit{Candida} species and dandruff-causing fungi - \textit{Malassezia }species. Among the bioactive compounds containing medicinal plants, we found an essential oil which exhibited various bio-activities such as anti-microbial, anti-oxidant, anti-tumor or an anti-inflammatory effect.

As per research survey, these effects are certainly due to the presence of terpenoids bio-active compounds in essential oils \unskip~\citep{954363:20981670}. \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} is considered as aromatic therapeutic application plant that belongs to the Lamiaceae family. This plant contains several medicinally important components such as alkaloids, volatile compounds, sesquiterpene and flavonoids. Most of these compounds has been used for the anti-hepatotoxic, anti-ulcerogenic, anti-inflammatory, appetizer, digestive, stomachic, liver tonic, cardiotonic \unskip~\citep{954363:20981674,954363:20981658}. Recent pharmacological investigation of the leaves and root extract of genus \textit{Coleus }revealed its immunomodulator, antimicrobial, anticancer, anti inflammatory, antioxidant, antiallergic property \unskip~\citep{954363:20981675,954363:20981651}.

The literature survey reveals that Coleus species have much pharmacological importance. It is considered as best medicine against urinary tract infection and also to increase the digestion. An opportunistic contagious microbe \textit{Candida albicans }is answerable for candidiasis in human hosts. \textit{C. albicans} can grow in a few distinctive morphological, structural features with cellular equal side divider \unskip~\citep{954363:20981652}. Similarly, dandruff is a scalp disorder which can be easily treated with specialized shampoos. There is, however, no true cure \unskip~\citep{954363:20981671}. The current system for treating dandruff with against anti-dandruff items and most are synthetic compounds, excessively rough for everyday use. Other than the chemical constituents, there is a wide scope of home-grown fixings like pepper remove, basil extricate, neem extract, rosemary oil, basil oil, clove oil, coleus oil, tea tree oil which have been reported to have great anti-dandruff activity \unskip~\citep{954363:20981652}.

Homegrown herbal medication, presently as days are picking up significance for treating numerous infections because of their huge impact and lesser side effects when contrasted with allopathic meds. The essential oil of \textit{Coleus} \textit{ species} is not been largely studied. This study proposed to determine the chemical composition of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} essential oil and evaluate their anti-fungal and anti-oxidant property. To our knowledge, there are no reports available on this plant. Hence the current study is designed to investigate and to profile the chemical composition of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} essential oil and evaluate the anti-fungal and anti-oxidant properties.
    
\section{Materials and Methods}
\textbf{Sampling and Essential} \textbf{ oil extraction}

The leaves of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} were collected and the samples were air-dried at room temperature. The extraction of essential oil was obtained by hydro distillation method using Clevenger type apparatus. The obtained oil was dried, weighed and stored at 4{\textdegree}C for further use. The oil obtained was strongly aromatic, pale yellowish in colour and liquid at room temperature. The extracted oil had a pleasant smell of the plant.

\textbf{Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR)} \textbf{ analysis}

The FT-IR spectrum of essential oil sample was profiled. The IR spectra were set up in \% transmittance. The wave number region was 4000-400 cm\ensuremath{^{-1}} for scanning the functional group's presence in the extract \unskip~\citep{954363:20981663}.

\textbf{Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Analysis}

The volatile components of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} essential oil were analyzed by GC-MS. Compounds were identified by their retention index were compared with standards. The unknown compounds spectrum in essential oil was compared with the spectrum of the known components reported in the Wiley and NIST Library \unskip~\citep{954363:20981659,954363:20981656}. The atlas of spectral data of sesquiterpene\textit{ hydrocarbons} was also used for reference for terpenoids and related compounds \unskip~\citep{954363:20981669,954363:20981653}.

\textbf{Antioxidant activity}

DPPH is a method for the determination of free radical scavenging reaction of \textit{C. zeylanicus} essential oil. DPPH (200 \ensuremath{\mu}m) was prepared in methanol solution, 0.05ml of test samples were added at 20, 40, 100, 125 and 250 \ensuremath{\mu}g/ml in water and to that equal amount of water was added and served as a control.

After then, 20 minutes of incubation, the samples were read at 517nm. The percentage of inhibition was predicted by using the standard formula:

DPPH scavenging activity(\%)=[(A\ensuremath{_{c}}-A\ensuremath{_{t}})/A\ensuremath{_{c}}]x100

A\ensuremath{_{c}} is the absorbance of the control (without oil), and A\ensuremath{_{t}} is the absorbance of the sample. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) was used as a positive control and EO concentration was calculated by plotting the inhibition degrees against the sample concentrations and shown 50\% inhibition (IC\ensuremath{_{50}}).

The antifungal activity was studied by agar-well diffusion methods \unskip~\citep{954363:20981662}. The essential oil sample was loaded on to each well with various concentrations (10 ml, 20 ml, 30 ml and 40 ml). The clotrimazole added well was taken as a positive control. 

All test samples were incubated at 30{\textdegree}C for 24-48 hours. After incubation, the anti-fungal activity was studied by measuring the zone of inhibition measured in millimetres. All the fungal growth inhibition assays were performed in triplicates.

\textbf{Statistical analysis}

The percentage of response, anti-fungal activity indicated by a zone of growth inhibition was taken as growth parameters. According to New Duncan's Multiple Range Test, three independent experiments data were represented by triplicates from each experiment and they were subjected to statistical analysis (mean \ensuremath{\pm} SE) \unskip~\citep{954363:20981650}.
    
\section{Results and Discussion}
\textbf{Determination of the functional groups presents using FT-IR. }

The evaluation of antioxidant activity revealed that the IC50 values obtained with the DPPH activity were lower than those obtained with other species of Coleus where the antioxidant activity of it is reported. The oxygenated monoterpenes found in this essential oil may act as anti-oxidant agents. The anti-radical activity of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} EO using DPPH assay (IC50 = 59.78 \ensuremath{\mu}g/ml) was comparatively higher than that of synthetic antioxidant BHT (IC50 = 39.86 \ensuremath{\mu}g/ml). The anti-oxidant properties of essential oil of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} are due to the phenolic compounds present in the essential oil which are able to neutralize the free radicals via different mechanisms. Anti-oxidant activity of leaf of \textit{Coleus blumei} was found to be lowest with percentage scavenging (IC50 = 0.261 mg/ml) which is comparatively lower than the DPPH scavenging activity of \textit{Coleus zeylanicus}. Controversially another species of genus \textit{Coleus} - \textit{Coleus aromaticus} has been reported to have a greater IC50 value of 97.78 \ensuremath{\mu}g/ml which is higher than that shown \textit{Coleus zeylanicus}. The main purpose of the anti-oxidant study is to reveal free radicals scavenging property. Anti-oxidant compounds scavenge free radicals such as peroxide, hydrogen peroxide and thus inhibit the oxidation mechanism that leads to cell damage and degenerative ailments \unskip~\citep{954363:20981672}.
    
\section{Conclusions}
In this study, the analysis of the chemical component fractioned showed various components that contribute to the aroma of the plant and also proving it as a potent medicinal plant. The antioxidant effects and anti-fungal property shown by \textit{Coleus zeylanicus} leaf essential oil approves the usage of the essential oil in food and drug industry. However, the future research of the work could be to purify and isolate the compound that is responsible for the inhibition of dandruff-causing organism and develop it into a potential herbal product.
