PHARMACOGNOSTIC STUDIES OF GREWIA TILIAEFOLIA VAHL
AbstractThe study was designed to study the macroscopic, microscopic, and also physicochemical parameters such as fluorescence analysis, extractive values, ash values, and loss on drying were performed. Therefore, this parameter is essentially used to control the quality of crude drugs and/or herbal drugs/drug products. The moisture content (% LOD) of the leaf powder was found to be 5.10± 0.14 (% w/w), total ash was found to be 12.27 ± 0.3 (% w/w). The amount of acid insoluble ash and water-soluble ash was found to be 14.5 ± 0.25, 6.23± 1.22 (% w/w), respectively. The extractive values of hexane extract were found to be 2.45± 0.26, ethyl acetate extract was found to be5.62±0.17, the water-soluble extractive value of the drug was found to be 9.142 ± 0.58 (% w/w), and the alcohol-soluble extractive value was found to be 14.64 ± 0.28 (% w/w). The results of physicochemical analyses lie within the acceptable limit, which in turn ascertains the quality and purity of leaf drugs.
