Abstract
The present study was aimed to study the physicochemical properties on Aegle marmelos (L.) Corr. Fruit types (Spherical, flattened and cylindrical) physicochemical values of all the three types showed both similarities and dissimilarities. In ash value except in insoluble value all are more or less similar. Fluorescent behavior of all the three types showed similar and distinct behavior. Qualitative Phytochemical analysis revealed that water extract of all the types shows positive results while 50% and 100% ethnolic extracts showed mixed results of compounds tested. In quantitative Phytochemical analysis there was no much difference found.
Keywords: Aegle marmelos, Phytochemicals, Qualitative analysis, Fluorescent analysis.
Abstract
The qualitative phytochemical and physicochemical characteristics were analyzed in powdered leaf material of Eclipta alba. Results showed that the percentage of total ash, water soluble ash, acid soluble ash, sulphated ash, loss on drying and crude fiber content were high. The qualitative phytochemical analysis revealed that the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, glycosides, phytosterols, saponins, tannins, proteins, fixed oils, flavonoids and lignin. The present studies provide referential information for the correct identification of the crude drug of E. alba.
Keywords: Eclipta alba, phytosterols, flavonoids, crude drug.
