‘The Gc Ms Analysis Of Ethyl Acetate Extract Of One Herbal Plant, ‘Cyanotis Tuberosa’

Abstract

The present study deals with the GC MS analysis of one medicinal plant, Cyanotistuberosa’. Not much work was done on this species and it is of interest to learn about the medicinal value since ethnophrmaclogical reports on this plant are also scanty. The plant was collected from nearby hills of Chengalpattu, Tamilnadu. The ethyl acetate extract of the tuber of the plant was subjected to GC MS study following standard protocols. It was observed that some very important molecules such as3,7,11,15-Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen-1-ol, n-Hexadecanoic acid, -((Octan-2-yloxy)carbonyl)benzoic acid, Cholesterol, 3H-Isobenzofuran-1-one, 6,7-dimethoxy-3-p-tolylamino- Further probe is warranted to known about the medicinal role of this plant in the light of the present report.
