Abstract
Nature has blessed us with enormous wealth of herbal plants which are widely distributed all over the world. Pterocarpus indicus belongs to the family Fabaceae is well known in Indian system for its medicinal uses. The present investigation was carried out to determine the possible bioactive components from the ethanolic stem bark and leaves extract of Pterocarpus indicus using preliminary phytochemical screening and GC-MS analysis, while the mass spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the WILEY and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST Library). The results of the GC-MS analysis provide different peaks determining the presence of 20 phytocomponents in stem bark and 10 phytocomponents in leaves. The presence of these bioactive compounds in Pterocarpus indicus is an excellent source to treat various diseases and health complications in humans.
