Phytochemical Screening by FTIR Spectroscopic analysis of Bacopa Monnier plant Extract

Abstract:

In the present research work, the extract of Bacopa Monnier plant is studied by FTIR spectroscopy. Through FTIR spectroscopy, various functional compounds found in the extract are studied on the basis of peak values. In this analysis, methanol was used to prepare the plant extract. Through this analysis, alcohol, secondary amine, alkane, carbon dioxide, aromatic compound, anhydride, conjugated ketone, nitro compound, carboxylic acid and sulphate have been identified in the extract of Bacopa Monnier plant on the basis of their peak values.

The results of the Present study generated the FTIR spectrum profile for the medicinally important plants of  Bacopa Monnier can be used in the industry.
