Abstract

Among the natural sources of medicinal and aromatic plants in India, the genus Artemisia comprises of 400 species and they found to be abundant in South Africa and South America. Around 35 species are found in India which are of high therapeutic value and are used in traditional medicine. Artemisia nilagirica (clarke) pamp is an aromatic herbaceous perennial plant belongs to Asteraceae family used herb in Indian traditional medicinal for the treatment of various ailments. In the present investigation, the various parts (Leaves, stem, flower and root) of Artemisia nilagirica (Clarke) Pamp plant was segregated, dried, powdered and stored for further investigation. In the present study, a known amount of powdered leaves and flower sample were subjected for qualitative screening of bioactive constituents by standard methods, using four different solvents (Hexane, Ethyl acetate, Methanol and Water). Around 16 phytochemical analyses were carried out to identify their presence in leaves and flower samples. On comparative study, Methanol recorded the highest number of phytochemical constituents in both leaves and flower sample. From the above results, Leaves showed positive results for tannins, flavonoid, saponins, alkaloids, coumarins, phenols and steroids. Flower showed positive results for tannins, flavonoids, saponins, terpenoids, alkaloids, coumarins and phenols. © 2015 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
