Phytochemical screening is an important step which leads to the isolation of new and novel compounds. Solvent extract of the plant material with the help of different solvents such as n-hexane, chloroform, alcohol and aqueous revealed that in alcohol and aqueous solvent maximum extract yield obtained in all studied parts. Phytochemical screening analysis of the extracts revealed presence of tannins, phenolics, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenes and steroids in most parts. In qualitative analysis, leaf showed presence of all tested phytochemicals followed by the stem and aerial ischolar_main of T. cordifolia.

Abstract


Phytochemical screening is an important step which leads to the isolation of new and novel compounds. Solvent extract of the plant material with the help of different solvents such as n-hexane, chloroform, alcohol and aqueous revealed that in alcohol and aqueous solvent maximum extract yield obtained in all studied parts. Phytochemical screening analysis of the extracts revealed presence of tannins, phenolics, flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenes and steroids in most parts. In qualitative analysis, leaf showed presence of all tested phytochemicals followed by the stem and aerial ischolar_main of T. cordifolia.
