Abstract :
For the sustainability reason and the cost
effectiveness, natural occurring chemicals and
compounds are the major area of attraction for the
researchers. The ease of functionalization of these
matrices along with remarkable properties, tunable
functional sites make them incredible materials for
pharmaceutical industry.
The present study focuses on the extraction of
phytochemicals from the different invasive plants (IP’s)
present in the local area. The IP’s are collected from the
local area washed thoroughly, dried in the oven at 45°C
for few days and grounded to powder to from the extract
by using water, ethanol and methanol subsequently
phytochemicals screening was done using standard
methods. Quantitative analysis of IP’s extract was
studied for the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates,
amino acids proteins, glycosides, flavonoids, reducing
sugars, terpenoids, oils and fat, anthrocyanins,
carboxylic acid, coumarins, tannins, phenol, quinones,
and anthraquinones were determined. The results show
the presence of different phytochemicals is present in the
extracts of the IP’s which can be used in the future
research prospective. By this beneficial sustainable
approach, that increases the reliance and reduces the
inheritability of people and environment to climate
change. So, the sustainable use of invasive plants in the
equitable way promotes the social-culture, health
economic, ecological and agricultural benefits.
