Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacognosy - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 10
Abstract
The present study mainly focuses on the ethnomedicinal importance of Soymida febrifuga. The selected plant was reported to have wide ethnomedicinal use. The literatures revealed that there is lack of scientific reports on its leaf. So it is important to provide scientific means in a systematic manner. The Phytochemical analysis of the plant has stated about the presence of Carbohydrates, cardiac glycosides, Saponin glycosides, flavonoids, steroids, triterpenoids, tannins, phenolics and fixed oil etc. The ethnomedicinal documentation confirms about the potent activity of the leaf part of Soymida febrifuga. The present study provides evidence that solvent extract of Holoptelea integrifolia and Celestrus emarginata contains medicinally important bioactive compounds and this justifies the use of plant species as traditional medicine for treatment of various diseases.
