Abstract:

The present study of physicochemical parameters like extractive of plant with different Solvents, Determination of moisture content, Analysis of ash values in Acalypha indica. The percentage of extractive values was maximum in ethanol (61%) followed by water (13%) and chloroform (8%). The petroleum ether extract showed low yield (5%). The total ash content was 9.6% and water soluble ash content was more than that of acid insoluble ash. The sulphated ash content was recorded as 10.2%. the ash values and purity of the plant sample.
