Prosopis cineraria is a medicinal plant known for its rich flavonoid content, which plays a vital role in its pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. This study aimed to analyze the flavonoid profile of P. cineraria leaves using High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) combined with chemometric techniques. The methanolic leaf extracts were prepared and subjected to HPTLC for the separation and identification of flavonoid compounds. Chemometric analysis was employed to improve compound differentiation and quantification. The results provided valuable insights into the diverse flavonoid composition of P. cineraria, highlighting its potential for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. This study contributes to the standardization and quality control of herbal formulations containing P. cineraria extracts.
