| Description |
Rubia cordifolia L. (Family Rubiaceae),
is a common medicinal plant used in
the preparation of different formulations in Ayurveda. The root of the plant is commonly
known as Manjistha and its dried samples are sold in the market under the name Manjith.
The present study was carried out to compare the authentic sample from its commercial
samples keeping in mind the pharmacopoeial standards of Ayurveda. The quantitative
phytochemical studies of the drug samples were carried out by studying the percentage of
ash, extractive values and qualitative screening was carried out by Thin Layer
Chromatography and different biochemical tests. Thus, the present work aims in forming
certain parameters for identification of drug with the help of various phytochemical
observations.
