IDENTIFICATION OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS IN VARIOUS MEDICINAL PLANTS
Journal Title: Journal of Atoms and Molecules - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Phenolic compounds make up one of the major families of secondary metabolites in plants and they represent a diverse group of compounds. Phenolics can be broadly divided into non-soluble compounds such as condensed tannins, lignins, and cell-wall bound hydroxycinammic acids, and soluble phenolics such as phenolic acids, phenylpropanoids flavonoids and quinones. In this article, a method for extracting and analysing the soluble fraction of these phenolics, in different plants having the medicinal activity using spectrophotometer. The results show that the plants under the study contain high amount of phenolic compound content and hence are may be having the medicinal value. Out of all these plants Azadirecta indica has the maximum phenolic compounds in high contents.
