Abstract

Girardinia heterophylla (Family: Urticaceae) roots has not been studied so far. The swollen base of roots were collected from and extracted with petroleum ether. The dried petroleum extract was subjected to column chromatography and TLC. Three compounds were isolated from the roots of Girardinia heterophylla . On the basis of spectral analysis they were identified as ?-sitosterol, ?-sitosterol and ursolic acid. In this study the presence of ?-sitosterol and Ursolic acid in roots of Girardinia heterophylla has been reported for the first time.
