Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
Now a days, increasing use of herbal products needs to study the medicinal plants by more approate study in relation to maintain its quality standards. In this paper, the literature and the published work on comparative Pharmacognostical study of Ocimum species. Aim of present study is to establish comparative standards for different species of Ocimum, to collect and comparatively evaluate morphological characters of different species of Ocimum, to comparatively evaluate chemical parameters of different species, to develop comparative standards to differentiate species of Ocimum. Present study was carried out by using various material and methods starting from collection of plant, herbarium preparation, macroscopic and microscopic study, Phytochemical tests, extraction of essential oils by Clevenger apparatus , TLC methods used of Phytochemical study of essential oils and biological evaluations was carried out by using agar plate techniques and also for antioxidant properties.
