Comparative study of different extraction technique and phytochemical screening of Delonix regia

Abstract

Extraction is separation of active portions of plant tissue using selective solvents through standard procedure. For extraction purpose Leaves, Root and Stem were used of plant D.regia. The plant contains Alkaloids, Saponin, Steroid, Flavonoids etc. The technique used for extraction was ultra-sonication method and Soxhlet method using methanol as solvent. From this Soxhlet technique was given highest % yield of extract as compared to that of Ultrasonic method. In phytochemical screening it was found that alkaloids, terpinoids, steroid, saponins and flavonoid were found to be present in extract of Ultrasonic method and Soxhlet method.
