Abstract

The current study was aimed to various the phytochemical profile and GC-MS analysis of Justicia gendarussa leaf extracts. Powder of Justicia gendarussa leaves showed the presence of tannin, flavonoids, polyphenol and terpenoids and saponin. A significant tannin, flavonoids, polyphenol and terpenoids and saponin were present in J. gendarussa leaves powder. The identification of the chemical compounds and their histolocalizatin, provides support to their quality control. The GC-MS analysis of J. gendarussa leaves revealed the presence of 25 compounds. The identified compounds possess many biological properties.
