Abstract

Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides Lam., a popular medicinal plant in Assam renowned for its ethnomedicinal values, belongs to the Araliaceae family. It is a short, edible herb extensively utilised in traditional medicinal systems. This study aims to investigate the phytochemical constituents present in the plant extract. Phytochemical analysis was conducted to identify therapeutic compounds within the extract. Results revealed the presence of various secondary metabolites in fresh plant parts, including flavonoids, phenols, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, carbohydrates, cardiac glycosides, terpenoids, quinones, and coumarins. These phytochemicals, with allelopathic properties, are crucial in formulating pharmacological and pharmaceutical drugs. The study’s objective is to standardise the components of Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides Lam. Various extraction examinations demonstrated the presence of different phytochemical groups and their yields in each extract. This paper provides an overview of the phytochemical investigation conducted on the extract of Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides Lam.
