Abstract
The present work encompasses macroscopy, microscopy, physicochemical, preliminary and phytochemical analysis of Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl. The coarse powder of Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl was subjected to cold maceration. The extract was concentrated and subjected to various chemical tests to detect the presence of different phytoconstituents. The physicochemical analysis was also performed. Which includes total ash, water-soluble ash, and acid-insoluble ash values. Alcohol-soluble extractive values. Macroscopical and microscopical study of the stem, root and leaves of N. cordifolia (L.) C. Presl was characterized by standard methods. Methanolic extract showed the presence of various phytochemical constituents like flavonoids, carbohydrates, steroids and tannins. The transverse section (TS) of stem revealed the presence of cork, cortex, vascular bundles and pith region and the TS of root showed presence of cork, cortex, vascular bundles and TS of a leaf revealed the presence of dorsiventral nature of a leaf. Powder characters showed the presence of trichomes and scalariform xylem vessels. This study gives a detailed account of the pharmacognostic features of the stem, root and leaf and preliminary phytochemical screening of Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl.
Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl 的形态学、组织学和植物化学特征
本研究包括 Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl 的宏观、微观、物理化学、初步和植物化学分析。对 Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl 的粗粉进行冷浸渍。提取物浓缩后进行各种化学测试，以检测不同植物成分的存在。同时还进行了理化分析。其中包括总灰分、水溶性灰分和酸不溶性灰分值。醇溶性萃取值。用标准方法对 N. cordifolia (L.) C. Presl 的茎、根和叶进行了宏观和显微研究。甲醇提取物显示出多种植物化学成分，如黄酮类、碳水化合物、类固醇和单宁酸。茎的横切面（TS）显示存在木栓质、皮层、维管束和髓区，根的横切面显示存在木栓质、皮层、维管束，叶的横切面显示叶片具有背腹性。粉末特征显示存在毛状体和鳞片状木质部血管。本研究详细介绍了 Nephrolepis cordifolia (L.) C. Presl 的茎、根和叶的药理特征，并对其进行了初步的植物化学筛选。
