Phytochemical analysis in different solvent extracts of padina tetrastromatica

Abstract: 

The phytochemical constituents of the aqueous, acetone and methanol extracts of Padina tetrastromatica were studied. The qualitative analysis revealed the presence of alkaloids, steroids, tannin, phenols, saponins, terpenoids and flavonoids. The methanol extract of Padina  tetrastromatica, was used for quantitative estimation of alkaloid, tannin, flavanoid, phenol, Chlorophyll, Protein and Carbohydrate. The alkaloid content was 5.97±0.10, Tannin (5.39±0.16), Flavanoid (1.48±0.69), Phenol (4.5±0.02), Chlorophyll (0.39±1.29), Protein (28±.0.16) and Carbohydrate (15.75±0.14) in   Padina tetrastromatica.
