A PHARMACOGNOSTIC AND CHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF PLANT CAESALPINIA BONDUCELLA
Arshu Patel* and M. Siddaiah
ABSTRACT Objective: To detail study of Pharmacognostic and Chemical Characterization of Plant Caesalpinia Bonducella. Methods: Macroscopy, Microscopy, powder characteristic, and physical parameters were studied. Physiological investigation of plant was done by standard parameters. Structure elucidation of active fraction was done to isolate and characterize various chemical constituents. The alcohol soluble extractive value was found to be greater than water soluble extractive value. Petroleum ether extract showed the presence of steroids and terpenes. Result: The alcohol soluble extractive value was found to be greater than water soluble extractive value. Petroleum ether extract showed the presence of steroids and terpenes. Ethanol extract showed positive test for flavonoids, alkaloids, glycosides, and tannins. By GC-MS analysis of saponified matter of petroleum ether extract contains fatty acid viz. hexadecanoic acid and 9-methyl-8 tridecen-2-ol, acetate. The unsaponified matter contains color pigments namely lycoxanthin and carotene. Conclusion: Pharmacognostic and Chemical Characterization of Plant Caesalpinia Bonducella is useful for sample identification. Keywords: Caesalpinia bonducella, Chemical Characterization, seeds, extract, GC-MS. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
