Abstract:
Pharmacognostical studies play an important role in the identification of the genuine plant of various
Ayurvedic raw drugs. Adulteration/substitution exists for many ayurvedic raw drugs due to the non-availability of genuine herbs in required quantities and controversy in the selection of source plants
. Solanum nigrum is an important herb. Present paper deals with the standardization of the whole plant by studying the micro-morphological, anatomical, physicochemical characters and chemical comparison by HPTLC studies.
