Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Pterocarpus marsupium is well known for its sugar lowering potential. In the present examination different bark samples (Apical bark, middle bark and mature inner bark) of Pterocarpus marsupium were screened for inorganic status. The levels of macro-minerals Nitrogen (1.50-3.13%), Phosphorus (0.023-0.163%), Calcium (0.60-1.848%), and Magnesium (0.21-0.339%), levels of trace minerals Copper (0.68-3.2mg/100g), Zinc (1.98-3.62mg/100g), Manganese (2.0-4.94mg/100g) and Iron (11.38-44.34mg/100g) and heavy metals Chromium (2.08-3.94mg/100g) and Nickel (0.32-1.26mg/100g) were evaluated in the present study. Cadmium and Lead were found to be absent in all the bark samples analyzed.
