Abstract

Herbal therapy is a widely accepted therapeutic method, where the use of medicinal herbs has great importance in traditional medicine. Butea superba L., often referred to as Ghandhali, Bakuchi, Khip, and Prasaran, is an indigenous green vegetable originating from India. The herb has been traditionally used to augment physical strength, potency, and male sexual prowess. An essential aspect of research is examining the bioactivity of each component, since it has a substantial impact on the regulation of biological processes and the treatment of numerous conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, asthma, hepatomas, psoriasis, and perhaps cancer. The current investigation centered on the extraction and phytochemical analysis of Butea superba Roxb, using both Successive Solvent Extraction (SSE) and Direct Ethanolic Extraction (DEE) techniques. The SSE technique included a methodical extraction procedure using solvents with progressively higher polarity, while DEE immediately employed ethanol. Phytochemical analysis was performed on the extracted components of Butea superba to determine the presence and amount of bioactive substances. Diverse analytical techniques, such as chromatography, were used to investigate the chemical makeup. This extensive study seeks to provide valuable insights into the efficacy of SSE (Solvent Extraction) and DEE (Deep Eutectic Solvent Extraction) techniques for extracting phytochemicals from Butea superba, as well as to clarify the range of bioactive substances found in this plant.
