Systematic and Ethnopharmacognostic Evaluation of Medicinal Plants (Paperback)

This research work defines the taxonomic position of some species of family Fabaceae and Solanaceae as medicinal herbs. Multiple parameters have been used including morphology, anatomy, palynology, organoleptography, pharmacognosy, UV analysis, IR analysis, LM and SEM scanning and allelopathy. These medicinal species, which have been used for various ailments have either not been properly investigated or the findings have not been correlated with phytochemical studies in Pakistan previously. The recent research would promote recognition of the value of particular medicinal species and result in their inclusion and consideration in the history of traditional medicines.
