Abstract

The goal of the current work is to use FTIR spectroscopy to examine the aqueous and ethanol extracts of the leaves of Feronia limonia, Bauhinia racemosa, and Pongamia pinnata. The FTIR spectroscopy investigations of the extracts revealed various distinctive peak values with various functional groups. The FTIR examination of leaf extracts from feronia limonia, bauhinia racemosa, and pongamia pinnata confirmed the existence of prominent peaks for proteins, amino acids, alkaloids, glycosides, saponins, phytosterols, phenols, tanin, flavanoids, and carbohydrates. The characteristic peak values and their functional groups were found using the FTIR technique on a spectrophotometer instrument. These medicinally significant plants' FTIR spectrum profiles were created as a result of the current study's findings and can be applied in industries. The nature of the therapeutic action of these plants as understood from their chemical properties could be a novel approach to developing cost-effective and safe herbal formulations to deal with dermal disorders.
