Mangoes (Mangifera indica) belong to genus Mangifera which consists of about 30 species of tropical fruiting trees in the flowering plant family Anacardiaceae. It is cultivated on an area of approximately 3.7 million ha worldwide and conquers the second position as a tropical crop, in terms of production. According to ayurveda, varied medicinal properties are attributed to different parts of mango tree. Mango possesses anti-diabetic, anti-oxidant, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory properties. Various effects like antibacterial, anti-fungal, anthelmintic, anti- parasitic, anticancer, anti HIV, antispasmodic, antipyretic, antidiarrheal, immunomodulation, hypolipidemic, anti-microbial, hepatoprotective, gastro protective have also been studied.the present study deals an indepth analysis of physiochemical and phytochemical screening of seeds of Mangifera indica Corresponding author address Monalisha Nayak*, Asst Professor, Dept of PharmaTech, Jeypore College of Pharmacy, Jeypore, Odisha,India Keywords: Mangifera indica, fluorescence analysis Copyright: 2018 Www.ijaps.net Published under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 www.ijaps.net
Introduction India is diverse in flaura and fauna. Plants of various species is found in this part of subcontinent.mango is one of them. Mangoes are juicy stone fruit (drupe) from numerous species of tropical trees belonging to the flowering plant genus Mangifera, cultivated mostly for their edible fruit.the majority of these species are found in nature as wild mangoes. The genus belongs to the cashew family Anacardiaceae. 1 Mangoes are native to South Asia from where the "common mango" or "Indian mango", Mangifera indica, has been distributed worldwide to become one of the most widely cultivated fruits in the tropics. Mangifera indica, commonly used herb in ayurvedic medicine. Studies indicate mango possesses antidiabetic, anti-oxidant, antiviral, cardiotonic, hypotensive, anti-inflammatory properties. Various effects like antibacterial, anti fungal, anthelmintic, anti parasitic, anti tumor, anti HIV, antibone resorption, antispasmodic, antipyretic, antidiarrhoeal, antiallergic, immunomodulation, hypolipidemic, anti microbial, hepatoprotective, gastroprotective have also been studied. 2-3 Plant Classification Scientific classification Kingdom: Clade: Clade: Clade: Order: Family: Genus: Species: Plantae Angiosperms Eudicots Rosids Sapindales Anacardiaceae Mangifera M. indica 2
Binomial name : Mangifera indica Materials & Methods 4-9 Extraction of the plant material The plant material was identified and authenticated by M.S Swaminathan Research Institute, Jeypore Branch. The commonly employed technique for collecting active substance from the plant material is called Extraction, which is defined as the process of isolation of soluble material from an insoluble residue which may liquid or solid, by the treatment with a solvent. This process of extraction was controlled by mass transfer.[1]the seed of plant were collected and dried.then extracted in soxhlet extractor by using methanol and water for 24 hrs. A) Methanolic extract of Mangifera indica: About 10 grams of the dry powder extracted first with 20 ml of Methanol 60-80 degree Centigrade by continous hot percolation method using soxhlet apparatus. After completion extraction, the methanolic extract was filtered and concentrated to dry mass by vaccum distillation..a green color residue was obtained. B) Aqueous extract of Mangifera indica: About 10 grams of the dry powder extracted first with 20 ml of aqueous 100 degree Centigrade by continuous hot percolation method using soxhlet apparatus. After completion extraction, the aqueous extract was filtered and concentrated to dry mass by vaccum distillation..a brown color residue was obtained. Methods: Total ash, acid insoluble ash, water soluble ash, extractive values were determined separately for air dried powdered seed of this plant as per the official method. Flourescence Analysis and phytochemical screening were performed as per the official method. Table: 1. Physiochemical parameters of Mangifera indica 3

on treatment with various chemical reagents which gives a different colours and it was mentioned in table.3. Conclusion The present study was carried out to evaluate pharmacognostical and phytochemical activities of two different extracts of Mangifera indica. The study on anthelmintic activity for different extracts will be performed for future studies. References 1. Liu R.H.
