Abstract
Qualitative and Quantitative Phytochemicals Studies of Ethanol Stem bark Extracts of Isoberlinia doka Craib & Stapf and Isoberlinia tomentosa (Harms) Craib & Stapf
Highlights
Isoberlinia doka and Isoberlinia tomentosa belong to the family fabaceae
This may be due to the fact that the two plant are closely related from the same genus Isoberlinia and were obtained from the same geographical locations in Nigeria, or as a result of similiar eco-physiological conditions, a minor difference in the qualitative polyphenolic content in the leaves of cecropia species collected at the same location.[28]
This study has clearly shown that the crude extracts and fractions were very rich in phytoconstituents
Summary
Isoberlinia doka and Isoberlinia tomentosa belong to the family fabaceae (ceasalpinoideae). In Benin, I. doka and I. tomentosa are the dorminant species.[3] I. doka and I. tomentosa are major constituents of the woodland belt in Northern Nigeria Guinea Savanna. They occur sparsely in the south of these woodlands.[4] due to over exploitation for human uses in Northern Nigeria open woodlands, these plants has been reduce to herbaceous state as a result, they grow annually from regeneration of old stocks.[4] I. doka and I. tomentosa are widely used by traditional medical
