STANDARDIZATION AND COMPARATIVE PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING OF CUCURBITA MAXIMA’S DIFFERENT EXTRACTS OBTAINED BY DIFFERENT EXTRACTION TECHNIQUES
Indalkar A. S.*, Bhokare P.V. and Khadke A. P.
ABSTRACT
Extraction is the separation of medically active portions of plant tissue using a selective solvents through standard procedure. For extraction purpose Pumkin seed powder was used which containing alkaloids, glycosides, & steroids. General technique of extractions were used maceration, sonication, hot continuous extraction (soxhlet) by a different solvents i.e., water, methanol, acetone and n-hexane. In this Soxhlet extraction technique was given the highest % yield of extract as compared to sonication and maceration extraction method. By performing phytochemical screening we concluded that the alkaloids, glycosides and steroids were present in the extract and also performing crude drug standardization. The plant should be authenticated by Y.C. Institute of Science, Satara. Keywords: Extraction, maceration, sonication, hot continuous extraction. [Download Article] [Download Certifiate] |
