Ocimum sanctum and aloe vera

An investigation was undertaken on fractionation of secondary metabolites from Ocimum sanctum and Aloe barbadensis Mill to check their antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Sclerotium rolfsii. Isolation of secondary metabolites was done by cold percolation and soxhlet extraction method with Methanol. Cold percolation method was found effective to get more phytochemicals. Analysis was done to check the presence of phytochemicals likes Alkaloids, Tannins, Saponins, Phenols, Flavonoids, Glycosides, Steroids and Terpenoids. Also qualitative tests viz.
