Phytochemical profiling and heavy metals composition of aqueous and ethanol extracts of Anogeissus leiocarpus

Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the phytochemical and heavy metals components of A. leiocarpus considering its applications in ethnomedicine.
 Material Method: were determined qualitatively quantitatively gravimetrically, while component identification was done using (Gas spectrometer-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) technique. Heavy quantified by atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
 Result Discussion: Saponins flavonoids detected aqueous extracts concentrations 10.22% ±0.48, 38.67% ±0.17 respectively, 17.37% ±0.65 19.63% ±0.60 respectively ethanol extract.. GC-MS analysis identified 16 26 compounds respectively. In extract, 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural, 1,2,4-Benzenetriol, cis-Vaccenic acid had highest peak areas 46.24, 17.12, 15.13% extract 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (14.40%),1,2,3-Benzenetriol (12.29%) -methoxybenzene-1,4-diol (7.54%) highest. Chromium (0.548 ppm ±0.030) only concentration, Cadmium a concentration 0.002 ±0.001 0.006 ±0.002 Lead with 0.096 ±0.020 ±0.040 Conclusively, agrees claims for traditional application plant folkloric medicine manage different ailments.
