Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 10

Abstract

The Ultimate analyses of selected medicinal plants of Chhattisgarh were undertaken with the aim of presenting the quantitative analysis of various elements like carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen present in the sample.The leaves of Neem (Azadirachta indica), Tulsi (Oscimum sanctum), Karanj (Millettia pinnata) and the mixture of leaves, stem, flowers and fruits of Kalmeg (Andrographis paniculata) were gathered, which are taxonomically authenticated. Results showed that the percentage of carbon in the leaves of medicinal plants varied between 35-42%, the amount of hydrogen is between 4-11.3%, the level of nitrogen is 3.3-12.4% and 0.3-0.8% of sulphur content is available, while the amount of oxygen is between 38-51%. The results are tabulated to demonstrate the difference in their elemental quantities of medicinal plants.
