“…Various phenolic compounds such as coumarins, flavonoids and tannins have been shown to scavenge free radicals in a dosedependent manner and are viewed as promising drugs for free radical diseases (9). Indeed, similar phenolic compounds are present in T. avicennioides (3,26). Tannins have been shown to have gastroprotective effect (23).…”

Terminalia avicennioides is used commonly in Nigeria and other countries worldwide in traditional medicine for the treatment of various ailments including gastroduodenal ulcers. The dark-brown methanol extract obtained from the bark of the plant was tested to determine its antisecretory gastric acid activities using rats. The extract at the dose rates of 350, 420, and 504 mg/kg, inhibited significantly (P Ͻ 0.05) gastric acid secretion in normal rats. The extract at the highest dose (504 mg/kg) used also significantly (P Ͻ 0.05) inhibited gastric acid secretion in rats pre-treated with histamine, which may indicate that the extract inhibits HCl secretion by interacting with H 2 -receptors. This finding undoubtedly validates the folkloric use of T. avicennioides in the control of gastroduodenal ulcers.

“…Ethanol extract was used for the detection of flavonoids (Wall et al 1954 andFarnsworth 1964). Sterols (Bhattacharjee and Das 1969), tannins (Wall et al 1954) and glycosides (Eyjolfesson 1970) were assessed following the reported methods. The absence, presence and abundance of different secondary metabolites in test samples were indicated by -, + and multiple of + signs, respectively.…”

In this report, 40 antidysenteric medicinal plant species representing 24 families were considered for qualitative assessment of their secondary metabolites like alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, sterols and tannins. Alkaloids were present in all plant species, though in different degrees and the relative effectiveness of Dragendorffs' reagent was better than others. Distribution of flavonoids, glycosides, sterols and tannins was sporadic in different plant species except A. cepa, A. marmelos, I. coccinea, M. indica, S. dulcis and Z. officinale, where all these metabolites were present. Abundance and mode of distribution of secondary metabolites in different test plants and their organs were discussed.

“…The qualitative analysis of different chemical constituents present in test drugs was carried out according to the scheme proposed by bhattacharjee 22 The powder of the test drugs was extracted with petroleum ether (BP, 60-80 º C). The petroleum ether extract (I) was tested for phenols, alkaloids and sterols/terpenes.…”

Background: The physicochemical evaluation is an important parameter in detecting adulteration or improper handling, therefore, physicochemical and phytochemical standardization is considered a prerequisite for the assessment of biological activity and determination of biological standards of the plant material, and it provides the analytical characteristics which may prove to be useful in fixing the physicochemical standard for herbal drugs. So, it becomes imperative to standardize the drugs to ensure their identity, quality and purity to ascertain therapeutic efficacy of herbal drugs. Objective: Therefore, the present study was aimed to evaluate the physicochemical and phytochemical standardization and quality control check of an important drug Sehjana (Moringa oleifera Lam) used for various diseases, Material and Methods: The test drugs, Sehjana (Moringa oleifera Lam.) were collected directly from the herbal garden of department of Ilmul Advia AMU, Aligarh. Which includes parameters recommended by National Unani Pharmacopeia Committee, Qualitative analysis and chromatographic studies (TLC) were performed for proper identification and quality control these parameter include Results: Ash values, Total ash, (6.44%) acid insoluble ash, (3.94%) water soluble ash, (2.53%) Successive extractive values in different solvent; petroleum ether (3.03%), diethyl ether (1.3%), chloroform (1.0%), acetone (1.5%), alcohol (13.1%), aqueous (18.56%), solubility in alcohol (15.2%) and water (22.93%), loss on drying (9.13%), pH at 1% (5.45), & 10% (4.81), bulk density (0.33%) and moisture content (8.6%). Conclusion: Preliminary phytochemical analysis of Sehjana (Moringa oleifera Lam.) showed presence of alkaloid, steroids, phenol, amino acid, and terpenoids, carbohydrate and protein, which may be active compound, responsible for its wide activities.
