Abstract

 The study shows that the leaves of Phyllanthus acidus contain major substances such as alkaloid, flavonoid, triterpenoid, tannin, saponin, steroid and reducing sugar. Ethanolic extracts from Phyllanthus acidus leaves analyzed by GC-MS are comprised of 16 volatile constituents, of which the most ones are 3-Hexen-2-one (32.67%), 4-Butoxy-2-butanone (20.70%), and 3.3-Dimethyl-2-hexanone (10.66%). In addition, by UV-Vis spectrophotometric method, total alkaloid content is 1.64 mg caffein/g, while total proanthocyanidin content is 46.88 mg catehin/g. These study results are the first ones reported from leaves of Phyllanthus acidus (L.) Skeels.
