DETERMINATION OF PHYTOCHEMICAL CONSTITUENT PRESENT IN AQUEOUS AND METHANOLIC SEED EXTRACT OF MORINGA OLEIFERA (ZOGALE).
Abstract
Moringa oleifera (Lam.) has remarkable medicinal properties and nutritional value possessed by various parts of the tree Viz. leaves, seeds,pods, roots and bark. The therapeutic effects of M. oleifera are due to the combined actions or effects of various bioactive components or phytochemical constituents such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, sterols and tannins. The present study was carried out to find the availability of these five important phyto-constituents in aqueous and methanol extracts. Quantitative analysis was also carried out for the same metabolite in the extracts.
