Identification and Isolation of Chemical Constituents from Ethanolic Extract of Abrus Precatorius by GCMS Technique

Abstract

Nature gifted the whole world for the beneficial of all type ofliving organisms,
especially plants and its products are more essential for humans and animals in different
ways like food, shelter, medicines, etc. The plant products are the major food source of the
mankind and animals. For the technological improvement the plant extract was analyzed and
its constituents were synthesized chemically for the need of the current scenario. The plant
extracts contains full of organic substances, which was react with one another to produce
different products for the essential components of the living organism. Especially the
medicinal need was increased tremendous, the chemical constituents are the major source to
solve the issues of the humans, animals, etc. The identification and isolation of the biochemical
constituents from the plants and its products are the key requirement to solve the basic needs.
Different methods are adopted for the isolation of the constituents present in the plant
extracts and it can be used for the specific applications. In this work, the chemical constituent
of the “AbrusPrecatorius” leaf was identified and isolated by gas chromatography with mass
spectrometry technique. The identified chemical constituents were responsible for various
pharmacological actions like antimicrobial, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammation, anti-asthma
activities.
