Qualitative Phytochemical Screening of Medicinal Plants Using Different Solvent Extracts

Preliminary phytochemical screening of selected Medicinal Plants

Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity and Qualitative Phytochemical Screening of solvent extracts of Dalbergia melanoxylon (Guill. & Perr.)

Dalbergia melanoxylon Gill. & Perr. known as African Blackwood or Mpingo in Swahili is a flowering plant in the family Fabaceae known to be an economically important tree with high-quality wood and being one of the most expensive timbers in the world (Jenkins et al. 2002, Ball, 2004). D. melanoxylon presently exploited for international trade is the most precious heartwood in the world (Ball, 2...

Antimicrobial Activity and Phytochemical Screening of Crude Extracts of Medicinal Plants Grown in Eastern Ethiopia

The aim of my research was to screen secondary metabolites and antimicrobial activities of methanolic extracts of the leaves Vernonia amygdalina and Plantago lanceolata, and acetone extracts of the leaves Rosmarinus officinalis and Thymus schimperi against two bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) and two fungi (Aspergillus niger and Fusarium oxysporum) using paper disc diffusio...

Phytochemical screening by FTIR spectroscopic analysis of leaf extracts of selected Indian Medicinal plants

A large number of medicinal plants are used as alternate medicine for diseases of man and other animals since most of them are without side effects when compared with synthetic drugs. Identification of the chemical nature of phytochemical compounds present in the medicinal plants will provide some information on the different functional groups responsible for their medicinal properties. While s...

detection of volatile compounds of medicinal plants with some nano-sorbents using modified or new methodologies and investigation of antioxidant activity of their methanolic extracts

in this work, a novel and fast method for direct analysis of volatile compounds (davc) of medicinal plants has been developed by holding a filament from different parts of a plant in the gc injection port. the extraction and analysis of volatile components of a small amount of plant were carried out in one-step without any sample preparation. after optimization of temperature, extraction time a...
