Abstract:

Various medicinal plants have been used for years in daily life against diseases, whole over the world. Presently herbs are used as important materials in the health care system, create an herbal regeneration, spread with a superior speed throughout the world. In Our current research work the Methanolic and Ethanolic extracts of the leaves of Simarouba glauca were prepared with the help of simple extraction and by soxhlet extraction. The extracts were used to detect the presence of different phytochemicals like alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, tannin, lignin, steroids, glycosides, saponins, terpenoides and anthraquinone with their biochemical tests and their conformation was done with the help of Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). It was seen that the methanolic extracts yielded higher amount of phytochemicals in comparison to ethanolic extracts of S. glauca.
