PHYTOCHEMICAL & PHYSIOCHEMICAL SCREENING OF THE HERBAL DRUG ALOEVERA AND CLITORIA TERNATEA LEAVES EXTRACT

Egyptians referred to aloe vera, a botanical remedy, as “the plant of immortality.” It helps with diabetes, hypertension, wound healing, and other medical conditions. Aloe vera gel extract and Clitoria ternatea watery, methanolic, and ethanolic extracts of plants was studied. A small sample of Aloe vera and Clitoria ternatea’s ethanolic, methanolic, and watery extracts were put through a phytochemical test to check alkaloids, tannins, carbohydrates, saponins, phenols, and flavonoids, and steroid and glycosides, as well as a physical chemical test to check the extractive value and ash value. The results of the phytochemical examination revealed phenols, steroids, glycosides, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids, and tannins were all present. The findings of the current research support the use of plant species as traditional medicine for the treatment of numerous illnesses since they show that ethanolic, methanolic, and watery extracts of Aloe vera and Clitoria ternatea contain bioactive chemicals that have significant medicinal properties. The plant leaf extracts of Aloe vera and Clitoria ternatea demonstrated an abundance of phytochemicals as secondary metabolites in the current research, and they may be exploited in the pharmaceutical industry to create powerful drugs. The findings from the investigations on the aforementioned plant provide support for its usage in conventional medicine to treat illnesses and diseases.
