Study on Quantitative Analysis of Two Important Medicinal Plants Gloriosa superba L. and Celastrus paniculatus Wild
By : Santosh Sharma
Page No: 217-223
Abstract
Both the evergreen climbing shrub Celastrus paniculatus Wild and the perennial plant Gloriosa superba L. are members of the family Colchicaceae and have substantial therapeutic significance. There is a species of Gloriosa superba L. that belongs to the family Colchicaceae. Both Ayurveda and Siddha, two ancient Indian medical practices, as well as Unani, place a significant emphasis on the importance of these two. The purpose of this study is to get a deeper understanding of the nootropic effects of C. paniculatus, in addition to its phytochemistry, traditional use, and other pharmacological properties. The species Gloriosa superba L. and Celastrus paniculatus Wild are great examples of the historical and contemporary pharmacological value of traditional medicinal herbs. Both of these species may be found in South America. More study is required since the medicinal uses of these plants are somewhat varied, and their phytochemical profiles are quite rich. The results of this research highlight the need of better integrating natural resources like these with contemporary medical practices.
