Journal Title: International Journal of Pharma Research and Health Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
In the present study, ethanol extracts from Andrographis serpyllifolia were subjected to GCMS analysis to study the important phytochemical constituents responsible for the various pharmacological activities. The crude extracts of ethanol were obtained by soxlet method. The GC-MS analysis of ethanol extract from A. serpyllifolia revealed the presence of twentynine phytocompounds in the underground part and twenty six compounds in the aerial parts. The compounds were identified by comparing their retention time and peak area with that of literature and by interpretation of mass spectra. E-2-Tetradecen-1-01, Pentadecanal and 1, 15-Pentadecanediol are prominent compounds in underground part. Three major phytochemical constituent’s mass spectra in aerial part are Thiocyanic acid, 2-propynyl ester, 3(2H)-Pyridazinone and 3-Furanmethanol.
