Abstract: Tridax procumbens is a plant belonging the family liliaceae or asteraceae, generally used in traditional medicines. Plants have long been used as a source of medication, and India's healthcare system heavily relies on them. In the current study, the various phytochemicals found in Tridax procumbens one of the medicinally significant plants commonly found in subtropical countries and growing primarily at waste places and roadsides throughout India during the rainy season were evaluated using chromatography. Flowers have a capitulum inflorescence, are tubular in shape, and are yellow in colour. This has disc florets with a basal placentation and ray florets, two different types of flowers. It shows hepatoprotective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-arithritic and wound healing activity containing different phytoconstituents such as Alkaloids, flavonoids, carotenoids, iso-sitosterol, luteolin, quercetin, oxoester, lauric acid, myristic, palmitic, arachidic, linoleic, and tannin. In this review we have studied about different analytical techninques of Tridax procumbens as HPLC, TLC, high resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy
