Comparative study of phytochemical analysis and extractive value of Aegle marmelos, Bauhinia racemosa and Psidium guajava

Abstract

The presence study conducted to study qualitative phytochemical and physiochemical extractive value of leaf of Aegle marmelos, Bauhinia racemosa and Psidium gaujava. It was evaluated using aqueous and methanol as a solvent to determine active components. Maceration method was adopted in extracting the phytochemical. This reveals aqueous and methanol leaf extracts of Aegle marmelos contain alkaloids, tannins, sterols, phenolic compounds, flavanoids wheres as aqueous and methanol leaf extracts of Bauhinia racemosa extracts present alkaloids, glycosides, tannins, sterols, phenolic compounds. Meanwhile leaf extracts of Psidium gaujava also contains Alkaloids, glycosides, tannins, saponins, sterols, phenolic compounds, saponins, Reducing sugar and Flavonoids.
