Dr. S. G. Pawar, A. M. Patil
Abstract :
India has got a rich biodiversity of medicinal herbs and spices, which includes about more than 2000 species. Plants are one of five big groups (kingdoms) of living things. It is best known as a widespread weed. Tridax procumbens L. is a weed found throughout India. It is native to tropical America but it has been introduced to tropical, subtropical and temperate regions of world. Tridax procumbens L. Family–Asteraceae (Compositae) is a small perennial herb having short, hairy, blade like leaves. Tridax procumbens L. has many medicinal properties, such as immunomodulatory, antidiabetic, antihepatotoxic, antiviral, antioxidant, antibiotic efficacies, wound healing, insecticidal, parasiticidal insecticidal, anti–inflammatory activity, prevention of bleeding, onchial catarrh, diarrhea, dysentery, etc. Phytochemical studies recorded the plant part contain oad spectrum of secondary metabolites. This study was carried out to reveal the scope and utility of selected plant in pharmaceutical industry. Further exploration for the isolation of phytochemical constituents of selected plant part has to be done in order to reveal its potential application in the field of drugs and medicine which is the urge of common man.
