Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the presence of phytochemicals in leaves extracts (aqueous, methanol, ethanol) of Hamelia patens, the selected medicinal plant. Ethanolic and methanolic (organic) extract showed good number of compounds compared to aqueous extracts. Phyto-chemical analysis of organic extracts of Hamelia patens has shown the biological compounds like protein and amino acids, carbohydrates, cardiac glycosides, tannin, phenol, alkaloids, steroids, terpenoids, flavonoides and saponin. Quinones, phlobatannins, coumarins, emodins and fatty acids were absent in both the aqueous and organic extracts.
