Abstract
The aim of the present study was to screen the phytochemicals in the methanolic extract of Blechnum orientale L. collected from Kothiyar, located in Kanyakumari district, Tamil Nadu, India. The phytochemical screening of methanolic extract was analyzed using the standard procedure using UV-Visible spectroscopic and FTIR. The UVVisible spectrum was found to have the presence of the compounds separated at the nm of 536, 606, 662, 718, 741.5, 783.5, 797.5, 820.5 and 890.5 of with the absorption of 0.822, 0.675, 1.499, 0.317, 0.304, 0.276, 0.275, 0.268 and 0.265 respectively. The FTIR analysis showed the presence of functional groups such as aldehydes, monosubst benzenes, 1,2,4-trisubst benzenes, organophosphorus, siloxanes, pyridine n-oxides, aliphatic nitro compounds, hydrochlorides, amino acid, esters and primary amines. Key words: Blechnum orientale, Phytochemicals, UV-Visible, FTIR
