GC-MS DETERMINATION OF BIOACTIVE CONSTITUENTS OF FURCREAEA FOETIDA LEAF
R. Mohanambal and K. Murugaiah
Abstract The investigation was carried out to determine the chemical components of Furcreaea foetida leaves using Perkin-Elmer Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry, while the mass spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) library. GC/MS analysis of ethanolic extract of Furcreaea foetida leaves revealed the existence of Caryophyllene, Andrographolide, Tetradecanoic acid, 3,7,11,15- Tetramethyl-2-hexadecen-1-ol, Palmitic Acid, l-(+)-Ascorbic acid 2,6- dihexadecanoate and 9,12-Octadecadienoic acid (Z,Z). The results of this study offer a platform of using Furcreaea foetida leaves as herbal alternative for various diseases. Keywords: Furcreaea foetida, GC/MS, Bioactive components.
