Abstract

FT-IR spectroscopy is used to reveal some qualitative aspects regarding the organic compound in plant Calotropis gigantean linn collected from Udaipur Pratap Nagar area (Rajasthan). Several indicator bands that are pertained to functional groups represent chemical components or metabolic products. The application of infrared (IR) spectroscopy in different extracts analysis is still limited compared to its extracts of Calotropis gigantean linn. In this article FT-IR spectrum is indicated to main chemical constituent's band stretching in all extract and also compared the quantitative differences in extracts. This article attempts to expand the use of FTIR Spectroscopy and at the same time creating interest among prospective researcher in herbal analysis.
