Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Pharmacy - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Abstract: The aim of the present study was to perform the microscopic evaluation of Lagerstroemia lanceolata Wall. Leaves Fresh L. lanceolata Wall. Leaf was studied macroscopically and microscopically. Preliminary phytochemical investigation of the plant specimen was done along with other WHO parameters for the standardization of drug. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of leaf and powder of the drug was done. The detailed microscopy revealed the presence of uniseriate unicellular covering trichomes, anomocytic stomata, calcium oxalate crystals, palisade cells, xylem vessels. The SEM revealed the nature of stomata, trichomes, epidermis, collenchyma and cuticle layer. The Physiochemical parameters such as ash values, loss on drying, extractive values, fluorescence powder analysis were also determined. The microscopic, SEM and physicochemical analysis of the L. lanceolata leaf is useful in standardization for quality, purity and sample identification.
