Abstract

Plantago ovata belongs to the family Plantaginaceae and has notable medicinal properties as it is used for curing diarrhoea, dysentery and constipation due to its property of absorbing and retaining high amount of water. Methanolic extracts of P. ovata were obtained through reflux extraction to perform further experiments. Various experimental tests were carried out to understand the physicochemical, antimicrobial and fluorescence properties. HPTLC and phytochemical profiles were also obtained. Preliminary phytochemical analysis showed the presence of alkaloids, saponins, steroids and triterpenes. Microscopy of the powdered sample revealed the presence of starch granules, trichome and mucilage. The maximum antimicrobial activity of P. ovata was seen at a sample concentration of 10 µL where the activity was found to be more than standard against Bacillus cereus and Aspergillus niger. HPTLC profiling showed 9 bands each in 5 lanes of increasing concentration and a pattern unique to Plantago ovata.
