HIGH-PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHIC PROCEDURE FOR THE QUANTITATIVE ESTIMATION OF TANNIC ACID IN ROOTS OF Chlorophytum borivilianum Authors: Gupta N , VERMA NM, KUMAR R*, SHUKLA K AND MAURYA SK
ABSTRACT
Chlorophytum borivilianum Santapau & Fernandes (family: Liliaceae) is a small perennial
herb with a condensed disc-like stem. The root of C. borivilianum is widely used for the
treatment of various human ailments. Tannic acid occurs naturally in many plants, this
compound exhibit various pharmacological properties. The aim of this study is to analyse and
compare the concentration tannic acid in plant roots of C. borivilianum collected from five
experimental site of district Bareilly The result of analyses show that the maximum tannic
acid content is 2804 ?g/g in the roots of C. borivilianum which collected from the Aonla,
followed by the samples of other locations Invertis University Campus, Fatehganj Purvi,
Meerganj and Baheri as 2405, 2161, 1631 and 1168 ?g/g, respectively. From the results it
could be conclude that the difference in the concentration might be due to the change in
location and genetic variation.
