| Abstract: | The Crotalaria burhia Buch.-Ham.
(Fabaceae), commonly known as jhamo and
khip, is an undershurb, fibrous
plant, traditionally used in the treatment of gout, hydrophobia and swelling.
Present study assumes singular significance, and it is supposed to contribute a
great deal to the existing literature. The present investigation was,
therefore, undertaken to determine the requisite pharmacognostical standards
for standardization of the plant material. Various investigations like
organoleptic characters, microscopic study, physicochemical standards,
fluorescence analysis, preliminary phytochemical screening and chromatographic
study of the plant were carried out, and the salient qualitative parameters
were reported. These studies provided referential information for correct
identification and standardization of this plant material. These information
will also be helpful to differentiate Crotalaria
burhia from the closely related other species of Crotalaria. |
