Summary of article contents:
The present study aimed at detailed pharmacognostic evaluation of the crude drug, Morphoanatomy of the leaves of C. album Linn was studied with the aim to aid pharmacognostic and taxonomic species identification using light and confocal microscopy, WHO suggested physicochemical determinations and authentic phytochemical measures. Chenopodium album Linn (Family- Chenopodiaeacae) is a very common plant. It is also known as fathen, Bathua, Vastuka, Chakvit. It has been found to have antipruritic, antinociceptic and sperm immobilizing activity. These properties are mainly due to presence of various bioactive compounds. Different extracts were prepared using the soxhlation method and these were used for phytochemical analysis and to determine various pharmacognostic parameters. The findings of the current study can be useful to progress and further scientific investigation on the leaf, stem, root of this species. The present study aims at developing a standardized profile of leaf, stem and root of C. album which would be of immense use to identify and establish the authenticity of the plant C. album.
