Investigation of Phytochemical in Euphorbia heterophylla and Euphorbia rothiana

Abstract

The genus Euphorbia attracted the attention of many researchers as it is poorly studied. Euphorbia heterophyla and Euphorbia rothiana were selected and aimed to investigate the presence of phytochemicals screenings in leaf and stem. Aqueous, Acetone and Methanol Solvents were used for phytochemical analysis. The phytochemical analysis reveals the presence of phenolic compound in leaf and stem of the plants in all extracts and flavonoid using aqueous and methanol extracts. Our findings provides evidence, that aqueous and organic solvent extracts of these plants contain medicinally important bioactive compounds.
