DETERMINATION OF BIOACTIVE COMPONENTS OF ETHYL ACETATE FRACTION OF PUNICA GRANATUM RIND EXTRACT
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Drug Research - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Punica granatum belongs to a Punicaceae family. The Punica granatum is valued as a powerful medicinal plant and used in folk medicines. Hence the present investigation was carried out to determine the possible chemical components from ethyl acetate fraction of Punica granatum rind extract by GC-MS Technique. This analysis revealed that ethyl acetate fraction of Punica granatum rind extract contain Pyrogallol (41.88%), 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (14.10%), D-Allose (9.17%), 2-Methoxy-1, 4-Benzenediol (8.34%) and 2, 3 Dimethylfumaric acid (3.96%) justifying the use of this plant to treat many disease in folk and herbal medicine.
