A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PHYTOCHEMICALS INVESTIGATION OF ANDROGRAPHIS PANICULATA AND MURRAYA KOENIGII

摘要

Among.ancient.civilisations,.India.has.been.known.to.be.rich.repository.of.medicinal.plants..The.traditional.medicine.involves.the.use.of. different.plant.extracts.or.the.bioactive.constituents..This.type.of.study.provides.the.health.application.at.affordable.cost..The.study.such.as.ethno.medicine.keenly.represents.one.of.the.best.avenues.in.searching.new.economic.plants.for.medicine..A.comparative.study.of.phytochemicals.was.made.on.leaf.extracts.of.two.herbal.plants‐.Andrographis.paniculata.and.Murraya.koenigii..The.leaf.extracts.were.prepared.with.six.different.selected.solvents.for.each.plant.to.adjudge.the.major.active.principles.in.the.solvent.that.have.value.in.rational.drug.design..The.qualitative.anal ysis.of.phytochemicals.encompasses. steroids,. alkaloids,. flavonoids,.triterpenoids,.tannins,. saponins,. quinone,. coumarin,. protein,. sugar. and. gum.. The. presence. of.these.various.phytochemicals.shows.the.importance.of.A.paniculata.and.M.koenigii.which.could.be.used.to.cure.various.ailments
