Abstract: 

The study was targeted to optimize the terrific extraction method for straining out maximum yield of phytochemicals occurs in the preferred plant, to decide the solvents and its ratio used for opted process being “Cold maceration” as well and to weigh the percentage yield of excerpt by means of the selected solvents and its measure. The official method was found to be best for extracting thermo labile substances also. The solvents were selected depend on its utility, polarity and suitability. The proportionality of the solvents was fixed by calculating the extractive value practicing a short term technique that is “Ultra sonication” at 40.0-50.00C for 1.0 hour. The concluded portion of menstruum was depleted with large quantity of weighed powder for 7 days softening at room temperature. The % yield of aqueous and alcoholic extracts was found to be 25.80%w/w and 7.40%w/w respectively by Ultra sonication. The quotient was fixed as 50:50 v/v of water and ethanol. Then the cold susurration was experimented out with hydroalcoholic mixture for 7 days taking 350.0g of drug and 2000.0ml of menstruum. The yield of extract was determined as 28.91%w/w. The juice prepared could be utilized for making natural formulations since it is non toxic and stable from fungal infection. The product might be applicable for detection of active secondary metabolites which are being the part of plants by both qualitatively and quantitatively fit in herbal research run with all health sciences quality control departments to meet global standards in herbal formulation development.
