Abstract

The species of Madhuca longifolia scientifically classified into family sapotaceae and kingdom Plantae. The Mahua is the most highly valued tree among tribal communities, and every part is utilized in central India. It is known by different vernacular names such as Mahua, Mohwa in Marathi, and Mahuda in Gujarati. The flowers are fermented to make country wine, which is also distilled to make liquor. Tribal use indigenous technology for fermenting mahua flowers to make quality fermented beverages. About 5-6 bottles of liquor can be 2-3kg of dried flowers by mixing and heating palm sugar, urea, and water with the flower. Mahua liquor is grouped under the category of country of country liquor, and hence the Government of India has imposed legal restriction on transaction of mahua flowers away from their area of production. In Madhya Pradesh, mahua liquor is substantial revenue-earner, for the state and for tribal a like. Nearly 70%-80% of mahua flower collected from the forest by tribal people are used for the production of liquor. It is a very popular a alcoholi beverage in the tribal regions of India. To explore the bioactive components present if flower extract of Madhuca Longifolia using TLC, HPLC. Decoction is the process that involves continuous hot extraction using specified volume of water as a solvent, done on dried flower Madhuca longifolia. The dried flower extracted with methanol the filtered and used for HPLC and for TLC hot water extraction filtered and analyzed. This analysis resulted as, in TLC the fluorescent band (under 254 nm) for sample Northwest corner (Nandurbar) RF 0.94 and Eastern part (Chandrapur) sample RF 0.96 in mobile phase chloroform: Ethyl acetate: water (10:15:5). In HPLC 20µl of both extract get injected into the HPLC column at 280nm sample of Nandurbar shows four peaks and sample Chandrapur shows nine peaks. The results of the present study enhance the traditional use of Madhuca longifolia which possesses several known and unknown bioactive compounds, in which some compounds are helpful to cure disease and some being reason of the disease.
