ABSTRACT

Many chemical constituents have been isolated from stem, leaf and root of T. cordifolia such as berberine, glionin, giloin, cordioside, amritoside, tinosponon, sitosterol etc. Many researchers have been working on anti-microbial, anti-malarial, anti-allergic, anti- bacterial, anti-cancer activities of T. cordifolia and some researchers have been also worked on in -vitro propagation of T. cordifolia, because the “National Medicinal Plant Conservation Board” has prioritized this plant species for sustainable utilization, cultivation and trade.
