Pharmacognostical and phytochemical screening of ethanolic extract of Silybum marianum (L).

The fluorescence characteristics of seed powdered extracts were determined under UV radiation of long and short wavelengths and ordinary visible light. When the small-grained drug and extracts were treated with totally different reagents and determined below ultraviolet illumination UV actinic radiation normal light, they emitted various color radiations. The colour modification for the seed powder and individual extract were distinctive and consistent revealing the solvent properties to the phytoconstituents and knowledge is gift. Phytochemical presence of absence in compounds in Plants Silybum marianum is the rich source of all the elements essential for humans. The moister content was calculated through the loss of the drying method and values were recorded. Vitamin E, vitamin C, along with beta carotene is antioxidants.
