Preliminary phytochemical screening of different solvent extracts of flower and whole plant of Wedelia biflora

In this study, comparison of preliminary phytochemical screening of Wedeliabiflorawas conducted using the n-hexane and ethyl acetate solvents extracts. The W.biflora samples were grouped into flowers andleaves. The different solvents of flowers extracts exhibited secondary compound viz. flavonoid, alkaloid, fenol, tannin, steroid, and saponin. While the extracts of leaves revealed flavonoid, alkaloid, fenol, tannin and steroid without saponin. Thus, the present of various bioactive components in the W. bifloraextract might bepotential for responsible on the pharmacological activities including antifungi, antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer.
