LC-MS ANALYSIS OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE EXTRACTS FROM POLYHERBAL FORMULATION TO TREAT PSORIASIS

Abstract

The present study deals with the identification of the phytochemical compounds in ethanol, acetone and benzene extracts from polyherbal formulation composed of the bark of Ficus religiosa, the root of Smilax chinensis, seeds of Nigella sativa, the fruit of Emblica officinalis, Terminalia chebula and Terminalia bellerica which is used to treat psoriasis. The bioactive components of different extracts of the polyherbal formulation were determined by liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectroscopy (LC-MS) analysis. LC-MS analysis of the ethanol extract of the polyherbal formulation revealed the presence of the 9 bioactive chemical constituents, 5 phytochemicals in the acetone extract of polyherbal formulation and the benzene extract consist of 4 bioactive compounds. The results of this present study provide scientific support to medicinal uses of the polyherbal formulation. These compounds may exhibit an antipsoriatic activity which can be done in further studies.
