The investigation was carried out a qualitative test for the possible phytochemical components (Alkaloids, Phenolic compound, Quinone, Protein, Anthraquinones, Saponins, Coumarin, Flavonoids, Tannin Fixed oil and fats and Steroid-glycosides) and quantitative analysis for some selected physicochemical properties after extracting the sample using soxhlet extraction by using ethanol and methanol as extractants. And Phenolic compound, Tannins, flavonoid and Steroid-glycosides are intensively found in the plant but Anthraquinones, protein and fixed oil and fat were not found even in a minimum amount. The medicinal use of Moring is results from the presence of some active phytochemical constituents. Lastly the physic-chemical properties value is investigated as follow: Moisture content 0.032% Total ash value 96 % Saponification value 37.4, Refractive index for Ethanol and methanol extract are 17,7 ,Acid value 3.94 and the extract is Insoluble in chloroform but highly soluble in Ethanol, Diethyl ether and Water.

Abstract
The investigation was carried out a qualitative test for the possible phytochemical components (Alkaloids, Phenolic compound, Quinone, Protein, Anthraquinones, Saponins, Coumarin, Flavonoids, Tannin Fixed oil and fats and Steroid-glycosides) and quantitative analysis for some selected physicochemical properties after extracting the sample using soxhlet extraction by using ethanol and methanol as extractants. And Phenolic compound, Tannins, flavonoid and Steroid-glycosides are intensively found in the plant but Anthraquinones, protein and fixed oil and fat were not found even in a minimum amount. The medicinal use of Moring is results from the presence of some active phytochemical constituents. Lastly the physic-chemical properties value is investigated as follow: Moisture content 0.032% Total ash value 96 % Saponification value 37.4, Refractive index for Ethanol and methanol extract are 17,7 ,Acid value 3.94 and the extract is Insoluble in chloroform but highly soluble in Ethanol, Diethyl ether and Water.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
