Phytochemical screening of Salvia moorcroftiana plant extracts qualitatively

Abstract

Qualitative and quantitate evaluation is essential for finding phytochemicals in medicinal plants. Plants exhibit therapeutic potential by virtue of the availability of certain functional ingredients. The utilization of herbal remedies for purpose of research is a fundamental and essential aspect in achieving competence in study findings. The extraction and discovering of the quantity and type of bioactive constituents in a plant for medicinal reasons is the main element of the analysis. Alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids and phenolic compounds are among the most prominent of these bioactive plant ingredients. The current study goal was to perform a phytochemical constituent’s investigation of the Lamiaceae family, particularly the specie, Salvia moorcroftiana, which is known for its numerous applications all over the world. The Salvia moorcroftiana plant has mostly been recognized as a tenacious weed in most temperate places all over the world. The recent research examines at the key bioactive constituents of the medicinally valuable herb. Fruit, roots, and leaves extracts comprised primary phytochemicals such as carbohydrates, reducing sugar, amino acids, hexose sugar, and lipids. Tannins and anthraquinones are examples of secondary phytochemicals. Phytoconstituents were recognized in fruit, root and leaf extracts respectively. The results revealed that Salvia moorcroftiana contains valuable plant chemical components that can be used in the pharmaceutical and naturopathic fields.
