Comparative study of physico-phytochemical parameters of seeds and stem bark of Shirish (Albizia lebbeck Benth.)

Dr. Jyoti Sharma and Dr. Rohit Johari

Ayurveda is considered to be the oldest healing science. Ayurveda also known as “The science of living”. Ayurveda knowledge makes it possible to understand how to achieve and maintain balance of the body, mind, and awareness in accordance with one's unique constitution and how to make lifestyle modifications to achieve and keep this equilibrium. Dravyaguna is also known as Ayurvedic Materia Medica. It includes Pharmacognosy, pharmacology and therapeutic uses of the medicinal plants. Plants synthesize hundreds of chemical compounds for function including defence against insects, fungi and many other diseases. Shirish (Albizia lebbeck Benth.) is an Ayurvedic anti-poisonous herb. This study compares the physicochemical and phytochemical properties of the stem bark and seeds of Albizia lebbeck Benth. (Shirish), a plant with extensive traditional medicinal use. By analysing moisture content, ash values, extractive yields, and key phytochemicals, this research aims to evaluate and compare the therapeutic potential of these two plant parts, which is crucial for their application in herbal medicine.
