Abstract

Plants are known as treasures of effective drugs for various ailments from ancient times. Plant metabolites played a protagonist part in the detection and development of novel chemotherapeutic mediators. Therefore, exploring the medicinal importance of plants has become extremely important concerning the evolving ailments of the present times. In the existing investigation, phyto-constituents and antioxidant activity of the plant known as Cordia sebestena Linn. were discovered for their biological importance. Cordia sebestena Linn. is an understudied medicinal plant that belongs to the family Boraginaceae and is commonly known as Aloe wood, geranium tree, and sea trumpet. The investigation objective is to develop the high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) fingerprint outline of the phytoconstituent of Cordia sebestena Linn, to identify the component of medicinal importance. In the present study, the HPTLC technique for the parting of the active constituents in extracts has been developed via the solvent system toluene: methanol: acetone (16:4:1). This study has provided the biological source which can be an eco-friendly, cost-effective, and better option than the chemically synthesized drugs. In the future, these fingerprinting descriptions will be supportive in further studies like quality regulation of the drug and estimating therapeutic worth.
