21. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
• The work carried out on Nicotina Tobaccum, showed the presence of various
Phytochemical constituents and bioactive compounds in all the extracts in
varying range and quantity.
• The quality and quantity of phytochemicals are based on the selection of
solvent system.
• The biological activities are attributed to Phytochemical constituents of
Nicotina Tobaccum and the fluorescent analysis of powdered drug can play a
remarkable role in the determination of quality and purity of the raw drug.
• These types of studies have vital role because of the commercial and research
interest.
• The various functional groups, detected from FT-IR analysis of N-Hexane,
Chloroform and EA extracts, are responsible for the medicinal properties of
plant. The compounds identified by GC-MS in N-Hexane extract of Nicotina
Tobaccum are medicinally valuable and possess a wide variety of
pharmacological applications.
• Further isolation and testing of phytoconstituents for their individual
biological activity will undoubtedly bring promising results in the discovery
and development of novel drugs. 21
