PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND CHROMATOGRAPHIC EVALUATION OF ALCOHOLIC EXTRACT OF DILLENIA INDICA LINN. LEAVES
AbstractThe present study is about the pharmacognostic and phytochemistry study on Dillenia indica Linn. Dillenia indica is commonly known as chalta or chilta in Hindi. It is a medium sized tree, a native of South eastern Asia, India, Bangladesh, East Srilanka, South western China and Vietnam. The plant is evaluated for understanding the pharmacognostic and Phytochemical characteristics of the leaf. The physicochemical parameters were evaluated which revealed the moisture content as 10.71%. Water soluble and alcohol soluble extractives was found to be 11.97% and 42.32% respectively. Total ash content, water soluble ash content and acid insoluble ash content was found to be 17.48%, 14.03% and 10.56% respectively. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of Alkaloids, Glycosides, Steroids, Flavonoids, Tannins, Saponins and Phenolic compounds. TLC and HPTLC analysis revealed the presence of various phyto-constituents along with Flavonoids, Steroids and Amino acids. HPTLC analysis revealed the presence of Quercetine, Kaempferol, Cholesterol and Glutamic acid. Detection was done under 254 and 366nm
