PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING OF HALOPHYTIC PLANT CRESSA CRETICA L.
Keywords:
Halophytes, Preliminary Screening, Secondary metabolites, Cressa creticaAbstract
Plants and animal products were the main sources of drugs for thousands of years and the use of natural products in the treatment and preservation of diseases is as old as human civilization Halophytic plants are also used to cure many different diseases. They are growing in coastal habitat like sand dune, mudflat and saline habitat. Halophytic plants are rich source of secondary metabolites. They contain alkaloids, flavanoids, phenols, tannins, saponins etc. so the study of phytochemical screening of halophytic plant is very important. So, this way I have selected to do preliminary phytochemical screening of Cressa cretica L. a halophytic plant.
