P. Shanthy | M. Kandhasamy
Abstract: The phytocomponents of Spermacose hispida leaves were evaluated by standard protocol using the equipment Perkin-Elmer Gas ChromatographyMass Spectrometry. The mass spectrum of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) library. The GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of various compounds like 2-Hexadecen-1-olm, 2-Pentadecanone, 6, 10, 14-trim, 3, 7, 11, 15-Tetramethyl-2-hexade, Hexadecanoic acid, Ethyl ester, n-Nonadecanol-1, Phytol, Heptadecanoic acid ethyl ester, Squalene, 1, 2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid in the methanolic extract of Spermacose hispida. These findings support the traditional use of Spermacose hispida in various disorders.
