摘要

Limeum obovatum Vicary, a valuable member of the Aizoaceae family, is traditionally used for treating various ailments, yet its pharmacognostic and phytochemical attributes remain underexplored. This study establishes comprehensive standardization of L. obovatum through a multi-faceted approach, encompassing macroscopic and microscopic evaluations, physicochemical analyses, and advanced analytical techniques. Microscopic investigations, including transverse sectioning and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), revealed critical structural details, while fluorescence analysis highlighted unique chemical interactions under varying wavelengths. Phytochemical screening of ethanol, dichloromethane (DCM), and n-hexane extracts confirmed the presence of bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, and fixed oils, with quantitative estimations showing substantial phenolic and flavonoid content. Analytical profiling via thin-layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) identified key compounds like quercetin and 2-Hexenal, emphasizing the plant’s chemical diversity and therapeutic relevance. These findings not only provide pharmacognostic benchmarks for L. obovatum but also validate its traditional medicinal uses, paving the way for future pharmacological exploration and clinical applications.
