Macro-microscopic evaluation and HPTLC-densitometric analysis of solasodine from fruits of some medicinally important species in genus Solanum Linn
نویسنده
چکیده
In the present study, comparative micro-morphology of fruits of above five species and estimation of active principle solasodine with HPTLC-densitometric method has been carried out. An artificial key based on macroscopic and microscopic characters were developed for identification and authentication of fruits. The trend of solasodine content was as: S. virginianum > S. nigrum > S. torvum > S. anguivi > S. melongena. This data is helpful in identification and authentication of plant samples and quantification of the active marker solasodine.
