Abstract
Nicotiana tabacum is an herbaceous plant in the Solanaceae (nightshade family) that originated in the tropical Americas and is now cultivated worldwide as the primary commercial source of tobacco (FAO, 2000). But the matter of concern is that at present, tobacco is the single greatest cause of death around the world and sources of momentous adverse effect on human health including maternal and child death (WHO, 2008).
