ABSTRACT

The objective of the present work is to investigate the phytochemicals present in of Sukumaram kasayam. Phytoconstituents investigations were carried by applying standard preliminary phytochemical tests and HPTLC. These phytochemical screenings revealed or showed that the Sukumaram kasayam contained important phytoconstituents and gave positive tests for the presence of carbohydrate, protein, phytosterol, glycoside, saponin, flavonoids, polyphenols and alkaloids. The HPTLC fingerprinting of marketed Sukumaram Kasayam showed 05 peaks having maximum Rf value 0.13, 0.46, 0.62, 0.75, 0.94 at 254 nm. Similarly the marketed Sukumaram Kasayam showed 06 peaks having maximum Rf values 0.21, 0.32, 0.47, 0.51, 0.72, 0.85 at 366nm. The information gathered from the phytochemical and HPTLC study of Sukumaram Kasayam which will serve to determine the quality and standardization of the ayurvedic formulation in the future.
