Abstract
Plant kingdom is known for having various medicinal properties. These medicinal properties of herbs, shrubs and trees are due to presence of various phytochemicals. In the present study, phytochemicals in stem bark of five selected trees (Holoptelia integrifolia, Syzygium cumini, Pscidium guajava, Pongamia pinnata, and Bombax ceiba) were analyzed and quantified by using various biochemical methods and Gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) technique. The selected plant part has been found to possess different phytochemicals like carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, phenols, ascorbic acid, saponins, alkaloids, and flavonoids at different level. In GC-MS studies, different flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids were detected in the selected plant part. Further studies of these phytochemicals for their pharmacological activities may have a path for pharmaceutical industries.
