Abstract
Herbal plants and its application in treatment of various diseases is popularly known from ancient times in India. One of the important flowering plant Furmaria parvifiora has been recommended for the treatment of chronic, skin diseases, blood disorders, fever, cough, which is also commonly known as Pittapapada, Shatara, Parpat and found in Karnataka region.The objectives of our present work are to investigate the physicochemical properties and carry out the characterization of Fumaria parvifiora.The flowering plant material was extracted using alcoholic method using Soxhlet apparatus. Various parameters such as powered microscopy and physiochemical properties (ash, extract, LOD) and preliminary investigation were performed. The characterization study was carried out by using chromatographic method (TLC) using silica gel plates as stationary phase and ethyl acetate: n-hexane as a mobile phase in the ration of 3:9 v/v.The extract obtained was semisolid in nature with dark brown color. The results of powder microscopy showed xylem, phloem, fibers, trichome, cut fragments of pollen grains. The LOD was found to be 74.8± 0.14. Total ash value was found to be 24.62 ± 0.63. The Rf value of extract was found to be 0.56. The preparative TLC Rf values obtained were 0.40,0.54, and 0.69. Extract found to show the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, steroids and tannins.The extract obtained found to show the presence of wide range of phytoconstituents and Flouroscence investigation has been done This review could be helpful to set some of diagnostic indications for preparation of monograph, standardization as well as for confirming identity of plant material.
