Now a day's more demand of herbal drugs are common for disease treatment but lack of Knowledge of proper methodology and availability of herbal drug are promoting the practicesof adulteration and substitution. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the qualityparameter of samples of Adhatoda vasica Nees., Azardirachta indica (Linn.) A. Juss. and Calotropis procera (Aiton) collected from the Eco-friendly and Non eco-friendly environment. This study has been planned to observe quality control parameters liketotal ash content, acid insoluble ash, alcohol-soluble extractive and water-soluble extractive. The result of alcohol-soluble extractive and water-soluble extractive of Eco-friendly and Non eco-friendly environment has been found with a comparable difference. The Sample of Adhatoda vasica Nees., Azardirachta indica (Linn.) A. Juss. and Calotropis procera (Aiton) collected from eco-friendly environment showed alcohol-soluble extractive values 9.6%, 17.6% &16%respectively and the sample of Adhatoda vasica Nees., Azardirachta indica (Linn.) A. Juss.and Calotropis procera (Aiton) collected from Non eco-friendly environment showed alcoholsolubleextractive values 8%, 22.4% & 23%. The Sample of Adhatoda vasica Nees., Azardirachta indica (Linn.) A. Juss and Calotropis procera (Aiton) collected from eco-friendly environment showed water-soluble extractive values 23.2%, 24% & 25.6% respectively and the sample ofAdhatoda vasica Nees., Azardirachta indica (Linn.) A. Juss. and Calotropis procera (Aiton)collected from Non eco-friendly zone showed water soluble extractive values 16%, 18.4% & 32%.
