Abstract

PHARMACOGNOSTICAL EVALUATION AND QUALITATIVE PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF JUSTICIA ADHATODA LEAVES EXTRACT

Dr. R. Malathi* and D. Kaviyarasan

ABSTRACT

Natural products have been implemented as alternative health care treatment and in discovery of modern drugs. Amajor focus of natural product chemistry has been toward drug design and discovery. Justicia adhatoda is a wellknownIndian medicinal plant valued for its pharmacopeia. This plant root, bark, leave and flower are used to healmany types of infection. The main objective of the present work was designed to evaluate the pharmacognosticcharacters and qualitative phytochemical screening of J.adhatoda leaves extracts. The extracts were subjected toqualitative phytochemical screening using standard procedures. Result shows that many of the phytochemicalswere present. They are Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Glycosides, Cardiac glycosides, Coumarins, Hydroxyanthraquinones, Tannins, Phlobatannins, Proteins, Xantho protein, Steroids and Phenols. However Amino acidsand Trepenoids were found absent in leaf extract. The diversity of phytochemicals found present suggests thatJ.adhatoda leaf could serve as a source of useful drug.
