Study of Physical and Absorbance Nature in Leafy Vegetable Ayurvedic Medicinal Plants through Radiation Interaction Method

Abstract

From ancient times different type of materials and minerals can be extracted from the earth. Further these are used as raw materials of physical, chemical and biological materials. Here, medicinal plants are also raw materials for the preparation of new innovative useful materials to the society. Now a days different parts of medicinal plants like leaves, roots, flowers and seeds are used for preparation of medicine and other physical materials. So, presently physical nature and absorbance spectrum study was carried out on leafy vegetables ayurvedic medicinal plants which are easily available in nature. The Nine Green leafy Ayurvedic medicinal plants viz, Anethum graveolens , Colocasia, Coriander Coriandrum sativum, Curry Leaves, Fenugreek, Gongura, Mentha, Scallion plant and Spinacia oleracea which are collected from different places of Bidar, Kalaburagi and Yadgir districts of Kalyan- Karnataka region. All these medicinal plants powder and solution samples prepared accordingly the WHO guidelines, hence half kg of bulk leaves part of the medicinal plants collected and prepared the powder form of samples with mesh of nearly 300 micro meter particle size. Further, 1gm of powder sample mixed with 10ml of Conc.HCl and 90ml of Double Distilled water, finally prepared 100ml solution samples for the study of UV-absorbance and Physical nature by using UV-Visible Spectroscopy study and X-ray powder diffraction methods. The absorption and X-ray diffraction methods are most useful methods of radiation interaction that measure the absorption of radiation as a function of frequency and wavelength, due to its interaction with a sample.  The present study observed that all 9 studied leafy vegetable Ayurvedic medicinal plants shows the peak interaction of UV –Visible at 295nm wavelength, it shows the present samples maintain equilibrium state of solution and good absorbance of UV-radiation from the nature. Similarly, the XRD pattern of present analyzed medicinal plants indicates that the all prepared medicinal plants samples are amorphous in nature at different intensity. According to the literature review, the medicine value of medicinal plants enrich when the medicinal plants physical nature is amorphous. The present study is helpful for the preparation of new innovative medicines and physical materials to the new researchers.
