Abstract
Abstract-Cordia dichotoma Linn, a plant that is significant from an ethnomedicinal perspective, is used in a number of indigenous medical practises and is popular among a diverse range of ethnic groups in India for the treatment of a wide range of conditions, including as an astringent, an anthelmintic, a diuretic, a demulcent, an anti-diabetic, and an expectorant. The ever-increasing customer demand makes it imperative that quality control measures be strictly adhered to at all times. Aims and Objectives: The primary purpose of this investigation was to establish a standard pharmacognostical, physicochemical, phytochemical, fluorescence, and HPTLC chromatographic profile of the leaves of Cordia dichotoma Linn (CD). Both the Materials and the Methods: Analyses of pharmacognostical, physicochemical, fluorescence, and high performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) were carried out on CD in accordance with the standard methodology. The CD had previously been authenticated. The results and the conclusion are as follows: the last observations were written down. It was determined that the loss on drying at 105 degrees Celsius was 8.5% by weight, that the total ash value was 13% by weight, that acid-insoluble ash was 5.07% by weight, that water-soluble ash was 5.49% by weight, that water-soluble extractive was 9.2% by weight, that alcohol-soluble extractive was 5.81% by weight, and that the pH of 1 percent aqueous extract was 6.88. The phytochemical analysis of the methanolic extract revealed the presence of steroid, carbohydrate, alkaloid, saponin, cardiac glycosides, flavonoid, and phenolic components. Under UV light, the fluorescence of the CD could be seen, and depending on the solvent, it appeared to be a different colour. Analysis using HPTLC showed that there are five peaks at a wavelength of 366 nm, with maximum Rf values ranging from 0.3 to 0.93. The pharmacognostical, physicochemical, fluorescence, and HPTLC observations made in this study can be used to evaluate the purity and quality of the leaves of Cordia dichotoma or medicinal compositions prepared from them.
