Cryptostegia grandiflora Linn Roxb, qualitative analysis, methanolic extract, flavonoidsAbstract
Medicinal plants have been in use since 5000 years. Oldest known herbal is Pen- t’sao written by emperor Shen-Nung around 3000 years. It contains 365 drugs, one for each day of the year. Indians worked meticulously to examine and classify the herbs. Charaka made 50 groups of 10 herbs, each of which would suffice an ordinary physician's need. Cryptostegia grandiflora Linn Roxb. (Apocynaceae), commonly known as “Vilayti vakundi” is found all in dry area in India. The study includes preparation of different extracts by successive solvent extraction for detail analysis. Fluorescence analysis of different successive extract and powder were noted under UV light and normal ordinary light, which signifies there characteristics. Preliminary qualitative chemical test for different extracts showed presence of glycosides, flavonoids, fixed oil and fats, phenolic compounds, protein and amino acids, tannins, gum and mucilage and carbohydrates. Qualitative phytochemical analysis of methanol extracts of leaves of Cryptostegia grandiflora Linn Roxb showed the presence of cardiac and saponins glycosides, tannins, flavonoids, proteins.
