Manju Madhavan, Sheeja T Tharakan
Abstract :
The plant Sarcostemma acidum (Roxb). Voigt is a member of the Asclepiadaceae family, popularly known as somalata. The plant is having a wide range of medicinally important properties. The present paper provides morphological, histological, physicochemical, florescence characteristics and preliminary phytochemical detailing of the stem. The preliminary phytochemical analysis of stem extracts namely methanol, ethanol, distilled water, ethyl acetate, and petroleum ether is evaluated. SUMMARY: This information can act as reference information for correct identification of the plant and also will be useful in making a monograph of the plant.
