Identification of phytochemicals, plant compounds Smirnovia iranica.

Abstract

Background & Aim: Fabaceae plant family cow tail (<em>Smirnovia iranica</em>) is one of the valuable species of native shrubs and sand dunes in the central region of Iran which is consistent with the production of forage and soil conservation and creating a beautiful landscape; it has the active ingredients of medicinal values. The purpose of this study was to investigate the presence of some phytochemicals in this plant for the first time. Experimental: The habitat of the plant, located in Kashan sand dunes four study sites were chosen from a distance of 30 km. Phytochemical study during the third week of April 1391 flowering branches and leaves collected at each site using soxhlet apparatus for 8 h were extracted by methanol extract of leaves and flowers. Mayer and Wagner's reagent for alkaloids detected the test for determining anthocyanins and flavonoids cyanidin, Chloroferric solution to test for the presence of tannins and test the reaction of anthraquinone Bourne - Tragr was used. Results & Discussion: The results indicate the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, anthocyanins and tannins, and the presence or absence of low- anthraquinone in both the body and the whole site. The final conclusion in terms of the priority phytochemicals valuable plant in flower organs and the optimum harvest Qasim Abad is the preferred site. Recommended applications/industries: Based on the results of this study , this native plant have worth phytochemicals that preservation and resuscitation and Advantage of its be considered
