【 摘 要 】

The extracts ofTeucrium stocksianumwere screened for secondary metabolites by using methanol, chloroform and n-hexane solvents. The methanolic extracts gave positive results for alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, steroid, reducing sugar, terpenoid, anthraquinone, phlobatannin and glycoside. In the case of chloroform, alkaloids, tannins, reducing sugar, saponins, flavonoids, terpenoid were present and anthraquinone, glycoside, phlobatannin, steroid were found to be absent, while n- hexane extracts contained tannins, reducing sugar, flavonoids and failed to detect alkaloids, anthraquinone, glycoside, phlobatannin and terpenoid. This paper highlights the significance of plant in traditional medicine and distribution of various chemical constituents with respect to Malakand Division, Pakistan.
