Abstract:
Medicinal plants have an essential role in society because almost 80% of low-income earners in developing nations rely on traditional medicine for their primary health treatment. Pennisetum purpureum is an excellent choice for treating eye problems, Headache, Skin disorders and Wound. Leprosy, eye diseases, bloody nose, intestinal worms, stomach distress, skin ulcers, and heart and blood vessel illness have all been treated using Azadirachta indica. Furthermore, many Indian cultures rely on these plants for their therapeutic properties. Many of the investigations on these plants have concentrated on phytochemical isolation and characterization. As a result, the focus of the study was on the qualitative determination of phytochemicals and proximate constituents. The analyses were carried out utilizing industry-standard methodologies. Flavonoids, Coumarins, Polyphenols, and Saponins were found in the plants, according to research. The plants studied had varying concentrations of moisture, ash, crude protein, crude fiber, and Ether Extract, according to proximate analysis. The highest percentage by mass were; moisture content 9.0% in Azadirachtaindica, crude protein 23.72% in Pennisetum purpureum, crude fibre 25.22% in Azadirachtaindica, Ether extract 13.91% in Pennisetum purpureum and ash 9.1% in Pennisetumpuroureum . The dried plant parts were used for the study. The findings suggested that the medicinal plants studied have a promising potential for curing diseases and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and that they should be explored further to uncover the active components.
