Preliminary pharmacognostic screening of Achyranthes coynei stem

Abstract: Achyranthes coynei is a rare, endemic perennial shrub reported from Karnataka and Maharashtra states of India. The plant is used to treat various disorders by folk healers and was proven to have antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. The present study was undertaken to evaluate microscopic and macroscopic characters of A. coynei stem, along with its physicochemical parameters. ProgRes® CapturePro and Microsoft Excel were used for statistical analysis. Perennial, shrubby nature and woody stem were the distin… Show more

“…Sections of the fruits were taken using Leica Germany (Model no - CM 1850) cryostat following the procedure described by Upadhya, et al . [ 6 ] The sections were of the thickness of 20 ± 2 μ. Histochemical and powder studies were carried out by using reagents and stains like iodine, concentrated sulphuric acid, concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCL), ferric chloride, Sudan III, ruthenium red, and phloroglucinol with concentrated HCL (1:1). [ 7 ] Similarly, organoleptic characters such as color, odor, and taste were determined for the fruit powder.…”
