Esha Yadav, Ashoke K Ghosh

Abstract :

Pharmacognostical & Phytochemical evaluation helps in the standardization of drug which will further help in determining the therapeutic effect of the drug. Anatomical and powder microscopy of Dumasia villosa leaves are carried out to determine numerous factors like morphological characters, physiochemical parameters etc. Phytochemical studies shows the presence of alkaloids, saponins and flavanoids etc. The results obtained from this analysis can be utilized for setting monographs. SUMMARY: In morphological studies it was observed that leaflets are single lobed, 7–5 cm long, acute apex, ovate in shape having seerate margin. Venation is parallel, petiole circular and it is having hairy surface with dark green in color. It showed the presence of covering uniseriate multicellular trichomes, vascular bundles, palisade cells and anomocytic stomata. In powder microscopy it was found that vessels are annular and thickened, trichomes, pollen grains, calcium oxalate crystals and starch grains
