Abstract

The main goal of the research was to explore the existence of phytochemicals, quantiϐication of primary and secondary metabolites of leaves extract of
Artabotrys hexapetalus (L.f.) Bhandari. The phytochemical activity of leaves
of Artabotrys hexapetalus was assessed using different solvent extracts like
water, ethanol, acetone, chloroform and petroleum ether. Among the different solvent extracts, aqueous leaves extract revealed the high content of phytochemicals. So the aqueous leaves extract was used for further investigations.
Aqueous leaves extract of Artabotrys hexapetalus was subjected to quantitative analysis of primary metabolites like carbohydrates, proteins and amino
acids. Quantitative analysis of secondary metabolites like ϐlavonoids, tannins and phenols were performed using aqueous leaves extract of Artabotrys
hexapetalus. Qualitative screening of phytochemicals reported the existence of
carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins, ϐlavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, phenols,
glycosides, tannins and diterpenes. Quantitative analysis showed the presence of carbohydrates (43.16±1.0 mg/g extract), proteins (60.4±0.88 mg/g
extract), amino acids (19.33 ± 1.30 mg/g extract), ϐlavonoids (28.3 ±0.91
mg/g extract), tannins (24.53±1.02 mg/g extract) and phenols (7.63±0.85
mg/g extract). The present study concluded that aqueous leaves extract of
Artabotrys hexapetalus as a potential source of phytochemicals, primary and
secondary metabolites.
