Pharmacognostical and Physiochemical Study on the Leaves of Nyctanthes arbor-tristis Linn

Aim: To rationalize the macroscopial, microscopical and physico-chemical studies on leaves of plant Nyctanthes arbor-tristis Linn. Methods: The pharmacognostic characters were determined in terms macroscopy, microscopy powder leaves. crude ethanolic extract was using parameters, preliminary phytochemical investigation (TLC). Results: microscopic study shows general characteristic Phytochemical analysis revealed presence various groups like alkaloids, glycosides, steroids, phenolic, tannins constituents. Conclusion: It can be concluded that established profile will helpful developing pharmacopoeial standards for correct identification quality control. present observation also macroscopical Linn.
