Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Pharmacy (IOSRPHR) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
Pergularia daemia is a fetid smelling, perennial twinning herb, widely distributed in the roadsides of tropical and sub tropical areas. It is used as an important medicinal plant since ancient times. The present study deals with the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the leaves of Pergularia daemia in different solvents and also this study deals with the separation of compounds present in crude methanolic extract of Pergularia daemia leaves by High Performance Liquid Chromatography. The qualitative analysis of the leaves showed the presence of alkaloids, steroids, terpenoids, flavanoids, saponins, phenols, tannins, aminoacids, cardiac glycosides, carbohydrates and proteins. The quantification of the compounds like alkaloids, flavanoids and phenols were done. HPLC shows the presence of two major peaks and exhibited the presence of two major components in the methanolic extract of the leaves. The results suggested that Pergularia daemia has significant phytocomponents and can be used as a source for many pharmacological studies and a curative for various ailments.
