Abstract

The present study is an experimental comparative investigation of the biomolecules present in ethanol, aqua and ether extract of Datura stramonium L. leaves. The purpose of the study is to monitor the phytochemical constituents in the plant leaves by thin layer chromatography (TLC), Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), and infrared spectroscopy analytical techniques. The Datura Stramonium L. leaves were collected, dried and was extracted with ethanol, water and ether at room temperature. A comparative investigation of bioactive compounds have been carried out using TLC, GC-MS, and IR Analytical techniques. Preliminary phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of protein, alkaloid, phenol and tannins, flavanoid, glycoside, sterols, saponin, resins, anthocyanin, and carboxylic acid. More number of bio active phytochemicals were identified, and the chromatograph showed peaks of individual compounds. The result of this study offers a platform for understanding the Phytochemical present in ethanol, aqua and ether extract of studied plant leaves and to identify them as herbal alternative for various diseases and it can be used as functional pharmaceutical when once it extracted and treated carefully.
