Abstract:Objective: To analyze the pharmacognostic characteristics and physicochemical parameters of the leaves of Argyreia pilosa Wight & Arn (A. pilosa Wight & Arn). Methods: Microscopic characters and powder analysis had been carried out with the help of a microscope. The physiochemical properties such as loss on drying, total ash value, acid insoluble ash value, water soluble ash value, extractive values and fluorescence of A. pilosa had been performed.Results: Macroscopically, the leaves are simple, ovate in shape… Show more
