All the results generated from the present study are represented in the respective tables. The powdered gum of Acacia arabica was subjected to preliminary organoleptic evaluation.
The scanty availability of information on this plant facilitates the study on it. The attempt is made to study the Pharmacognostical, phytochemical and pharmacological activities of gum of the plant. The study was divided into three major parts viz.
• Pharmacognostical studies
• Phytochemical screening
• Pharmacological studies.
