Medicinal plants are characterized by the presence of various bioactive secondary metabolites, with flavonoids being consistently identified as a primary chemical constituent responsible for their therapeutic properties as described in [1], [2], [3], and [4]. Furthermore, flavonoids are used as chemotaxonomic markers for these plants [5] and are the subject of extensive pharmaceutical research regarding their extraction and medical utility [6] and [7].
