Comparative Basic Pharmacognostic Studies of Three Murdanniaspecies (Family Commelinaceae)Surasit Yaodoung
Main Article Content
Abstract
The comparative basic pharmacognostic studies for three Murdanniaspecies (Family Commelinaceae), M. bracteata, M. loriformisand M. nudiflora, were conducted by using methods of diagnostic microscopic studies (leaf scraping and leaf clearing) and phytochemical methods (physico-chemical value and thin-layer chromatography). Cutin pattern and macro-hairs are distinguished epidermal microscopic characters among the species. The differences of total phenolic contents and thin-layer chromatogram are supported the identification.
