Abstract

Kyllinga monocephala (Cyperaceae) perennial herb growing one to several erect stems to heights up to about half a meter and found throughout India. It is traditionally useful in vitiated conditions pitta and vata, hyperdipsia, fever, strangury, verminosis, cough, bronchitis, hepatopathy, splenopathy, diabetes and dermatitis. Phytochemical, physico-chemical standardization of rhizome of Kyllinga monocephala has been carried out in the present study. The study includes organoleptic characters along with an estimation of its physicochemical parameters such as loss on drying, ash values, extractability in Petroleum ether, ethanol, water and preliminary phytochemical screening. The generated information of the present study will provide data which are helpful in the correct identification and authentication of this medicinal plant and may help in preventing its adulteration.
