Anotace: Plants are a rich natural resource that serve many uses for people. Humans have long relied on plants for a wide range of needs, including sustenance, housing, and health care. People have been looking to nature for medical solutions since ancient times. He accomplished this by experimenting with and repurposing various organic materials. Plants are the most often utilized of these natural resources. Because of the potential for adverse reactions to synthetic medications, there has been a shift in recent years toward a greater reliance on natural goods. As such, it is crucial to learn which plants are active in certain biological processes. Our research focused on the phenolic, mineral, nutritional, and essential oil content of Crocus genus members as well as their biological activity. A number of crocus species have been demonstrated to have medicinal and nutritional value. Antioxidant, antibacterial, antiviral, and anticancer research has also seen a surge in recent years. Essential oils and phenolic chemicals are suspected to be present in this plant, making it a potential natural source.
