Abstract
This study focuses on establishing standardizing parameters for the Pharmacognostic evaluation of the Vidanga seeds and Camellia sinensis leaves. The research was carried out using a variety of methodological approaches. The total ash value, the acid insolubleash value, thewater-soluble ash value, the moisture content, and the amount of foreign organic matter are all included in the physicochemical parameter. Extractionof Vidangaseeds andCamellia sinensis leaves in different solvents in order of polarity with Petroleum ether, chloroform, ethanol, distillation revealed Alkaloids, carbohydrates, glycosides, tanins, Flavonoids, phenolic compounds. Result shows the physicochemical parameters total Ash value, acid insoluble ash value, water soluble ash value, moisture content, and foreign organic matter, which weredetermined 8.98 %, 1.5 %, 7.8 %, 3.2 %, and 0.25 % in Vidanga seeds, and 7.78%, 1.6%, 8%, 2.2 %, and 0.21 % in Camellia sinensis leaves, respectively. Phytochemical investigation of Camellia sinensis leaves and Vidanga seeds revealed the presence of various importantsecondary metabolites suchas carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, steroid, glycosides, flavonoids, alkaloids and tannins in Petroleum ether, chloroform, ethanol and aqueous extracts
