Qualitative Phytochemical Detection of Ethanolic Leaf Extract of Two Medicinal Plant Such as Ocimum basilicum and Coleus amboinicus

Abstract

Study on phytochemical detection of ethanoic leaf by qualitative analysis focuses on the presence of phytochemicals in two different plant leaves. Ocimum basilicum and Coleus amoboinicus the findings are expected to contribute to the development of natural products and enhance the utilization of plant as a medicine.The method of extraction using ethanol as a solvent is attributed to its efficacy in extracting broad spectrum of phytochemicals, ensuring the comprehensive analysis of the bioactive constituents present in these plants. Preliminary phytochemical tests are being carried out by following standard procedure. Qualitative analysis revealed that Coleus amboinicus contained alkaloids, betacyanin, carbohydrates, Flavonoids, Cardiac glycosides, Phenol,and Starch. In contrast Ocimum basilicum exhibited a broad spectrum including Alkaloids, Anthocyaninand betacyanin, carbohydrates, Coumarine, Flavanoids, Cardiac glycosides, phenols, Saponins, Starch, Tannins, Terpenoids. The findings highlight the diverse bioactive compounds present in the leaves consideredfir studyshows their potential in the development of medicinal agricultural and cosmetics products.Further research in these phytochemicals such as terpenoids, terpenes in herbal plants as insecticide is recommended for sustainable agricultural practices.
