Abstract: Morus alba L., also known as white mulberry, has long been used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of health conditions. The leaves of the plant are rich in polyphenols such as quercetin 3-(- malonylglucoside), rutin, isoquercitin, and cyaniding-3-rutinoside apigenin, luteolin, caffeic acid, gallic acid and umbelliferone, chlorogenic acid, kaempferol, and flavonoids. In the present study, qualitative tests of leaf extracts showed significant indication of the presence of Flavonoids were found to be present in the leaf extracts, with a maximum concentration by using methanol and ethanol solvents. Using thin layer chromatography (TLC) profiling of plant extracts gives an impressive result that directing towards the existence of phytoconstituents. In addition, the alcoholic extracts for mulberry leaves contain a higher content of bioactive compounds, which can be used for further researches on this plant.
