Description 547-556
Stereospermum colais and Stereospermum suaveolens are known as "Patala" in Ayurveda and also a constituent of
Dasamula. It is difficult to distinguish between the two species and hence it is difficult to identify genuine Patala. Both
Stereospermum species looks alike in morphology with the exception of flower-color. So collection of the plant material
from wild source as well as differentiating from the marketed sample is a challenge for the herbal industries to identify the
genuine Patala. Hence, an attempt was made to compare the pharmacognostical and phytochemical parameters of the roots
of S. colais and S. suaveolens. Macroscopy, microscopy, physico-chemical analysis and elemental analysis were carried out
to standardize the roots. The salient diagnostic features identified to distinguish the plant species are heterocellular periderm
and calcium oxalate druses in S. colais and multitype (Rhytidome) periderm and calcium oxalate raphides in S. suaveolens.
Qualitative and quantitative phytochemical analysis and comparative HPTLC fingerprint analysis of various extracts of roots
revealed their phytochemical composition. The standardization parameters developed here can be used as reference standard
for correct identification of the plant. Further, it will act as a tool to detect adulterants and substituents consequently
maintains the quality, reproducibility and efficacy of the plant material.
