Objective: To establish the standardization parameters for complete pharmacognostic evaluation of leaf and stem bark of Artabotrys zeylanicus and Artabotrys sahyadricus are medicinally important liana.
Materials and Methods: Macro and microscopical, HPTLC profiles were carried out for phytochemical evaluation of ethyl acetate extracts of leaf and stem bark extract of Artabotrys zeylanicus and Artabotrys sahyadricus.
Results: Macro and micro the HPTLC revealed the presence of rich secondary metabolites in ethyl acetate leaf and stem bark extract of A. zeylanicus and A. sahyadricus. The HPTLC fingerprinting profile developed for ethyl acetate leaf and stem bark extracts will lead to the identification and quantification of marker compounds.
Conclusions: Pharmacognostical studies proved the presence of secondary metabolites and rich content fibre and ethyl acetate leaf and stem bark extract of A. zeylanicus and A. sahyadricus have the potential to formulated newly isolating and identifying marker compounds and new drugs.
