FOURIER TRANSFORM INFRA RED (FT-IR) SPECTRAL STUDIES OF FOENICULUM VULGARE 

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 3

Abstract

Plants have been used in traditional medicine for several thousand years. Medicinal plants as a group comprise approximately 8000 species and account for about 50% of all the higher flowering plant species in India. In the present study, the plant Foeniculum vulgare was subjected to FT-IR spectroscopy. FT-IR-is a vibrational spectroscopy that records absorptions of IR light by chemical bonds in all molecules incl. polymers. Foeniculum vulgare (Apiaceae) commonly known as fennel is a well known and important medicinal and aromatic plant widely used as carminative, digestive, lactogogue and diuretic and in treating respiratory and gastrointestinal disorders. The results showed the detections of the bands in organic molecules. Thus the study became evident that the plant posses some bioactive compounds at various bands obtained after FT-IR.
