| Abstract: | Spondias mangifera Willd., commonly known as Wild mango or Hog plum (Hindi-
Amara) is an important medicinal plant. The dry bark is silver brown coloured with mucilaginous
astringent characters. It is traditionally used in North-East regions of India as refrigerant, aromatic,
tonic and for the treatment of dysentery, diarrhoea and rheumatism. This study deals with the
pharmacognostical evaluation of its dried trunk bark which includes macro and microscopic
studies, determination of physicochemical parameters of the extract using TLC fingerprinting. |
