A COMPARATIVE PHYTOCHEMICAL APPROACH FOR SUBSTITUTION OF STEM BARK WITH SMALL BRANCHES IN BUCHANANIA LANZAN FOR MEDICINAL USE

Overexploitation of many traditional medicinal plants like Buchanania lanzan Spreng. has become a threat and shortly, many medicinal plants may be unavailable for use in the medicinal industry. The present study outlines the concept of plant part substitution. Stem bark and small branches of B. lanzan are compared based on physicochemical analysis, phytochemical analysis, total phenolic content, t...
