Abstract

Medicinal plants are still important source for drug discovery. Herbal medicines have gained importance in recent years because of their efficacy and cost effectiveness. The objective of the present study is to investigate the phytochemical present in the Cynanchum callialatum. The phytochemical analysis was done by preliminary phytochemical test for secondary metabolites, GCMS for volatile constituents and LCMS for nonvolatile constituents. The phytochemical test confirms the presents of alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, tanins etc. The GCMS analysis shows the presents of 52 compounds in which some have medicinal value. The LCMS analysis shows the presents of compounds in which most of them have the medicinal properties. The present study on Cynanchum callialatum reveals the presence of various phytochemical constituents like Betulinic acid, Lupeol, Germacrone and Longiverbenone. Cynanchum callialatum may be a potential source for anticancer, antiHIV, antiinflammatory, antimicrobial drug discovery.
