Phytochemical Profiling of Phyllanthus emblica Leaf Extract

Shashi Kumar Dubey,Deepak Mishra

Phyllanthus emblica is one of the most important plants in the traditional Indian system of medicine with wide range of pharmacological and nutritional applications even in present day therapeutics. In the present investigation identification of different bioactive components present in Phyllanthus emblica has done by performing various phytochemical test. For this the methanolic extract of leaves of Phyllanthus emblica has been prepared by Soxhlet extraction method. The presence of different bioactive component i.e., carbohydrate, protein, alkaloid, Triterpenoids and Steroids, Saponins, etc. has determined by performing different qualitative test i.e., Mayer, Molish, Ninhydrin foam test etc. The positive result of different qualitative test indicates the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrate, reducing sugar and steroids whereas negative results indicate the absence of saponin and proteins.
