Standardization and preliminary phytochemical screening of Ficus Palmata Forssk stem barks

Journal Title: Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

Ficus palmate Forssk is a herbaceous perennial plant belonging to the family Moraceae. Even though this plant has gained scientific importance recently, there is a need for the pharmacognostic standardization. Hence, in the present work the stem bark was subjected to various microscopical and physical evaluations. In the microscopical studies, the different cell structures and arrangements were studied and in physical evaluation the ash values and extractive values were studied. The various pharmacognostical constants were obtained which could help in the development of a suitable monograph for the plant.
