Abstract | ||
A detailed macro and micromorphological study of the leaves of Khaya senegalensis A. Juss is given to facilitate their identification either in the entire or in the powdered form. Moreover, 5 compounds have been isolated and proved to be a-amyrin, b-amyrin, b-sitesterol, quercetin and rutin. The fatty acids were converted to their methyl esters and analyzed by G.L.C. In addition, a chromatospectrophotometric method was adopted for quantitative estimation of these flavonoids. | ||
