Abstract

The study aims to evaluate the qualitative analysis of Acalypha wilkesiana and Cordyline terminalis mahatma plant stems. Extract is prepared by Maceration for 48 hours using ethanol. The result obtained for ethanolic extract of Acalypha wilkesiana stem shown the presence of Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Tannins, Saponins, Glycosides. The result obtained for ethanolic extract of Cordyline terminalis mahatma stem shown the presence of Alkaloids, Tannins, Flavonoids, Saponins, Glycosides, Phenols, Terpenoids
