PHARMACOGNOSTIC AND PHYTOCHEMICAL EVALUATION OF OUGENIA DALBERGIOIDES BARK
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Ougenia dalbergioides (Fabaceae), is commonly known as Sandan. It is reported to have good medicinal values in traditional system of medicine. According to Ayurveda the bark is used in dysentery, leucoderma, urinary discharge, ulcers, skin disease and blood disease, biliousness, and anemia. A systematic, scientific pharmacognostic and phytochemical investigation on the bark of Ougeinia dalbergioides has not been reported in literature to our knowledge. So, pharmacognostical and phytochemical studies on the bark of Ougeinia dalbergioides was carried out. The present study deals with morphological studies of bark and microscopical studies such as transverse section, powder characteristics and qualitative studies were determined by using bark of Ougenia dalbergioides. The Proximate analysis of powder was also carried out in which extractive value, ash value, moisture content, fluorescence analysis and elemental analysis were determined and also successive solvent extraction was carried out using soxhlet extractor in which solvent like petroleum ether, toluene ,chloroform ,acetone , methanol and water were used. The total phenolic content was also determined using Folin Ciocalteu reagent. Preliminary phytochemical screening of various successive extracts of bark was done qualitatively which revealed the presence of triterpenes, carbohydrates, tannins, and flavonoids.
