The activecomponents (.i.e. flavonoids) were found in methanol, chloroform, ethyl acetate and n-butanol while methanol, chloroform, ethylacetate and n-butanol contained steroids. From the chromatographic analysis, it was observed that the component 1and 2 have RF values of 0.61 and 0.48. The identification of the components and the specific absorption band were determined by spectroscopic analysis.}, DOI = {} }
