Identifying the phytochemical content in illicium verum (star anise) extracts prepared with different polarity solvents based on a simple maceration method

This study focuses on identifying the phytochemical composition of Star anise (Illicium verum) extract with different polarity solvents, including n-hexane, distilled water, and methanol by using a maceration method. The percentage yield of compounds extracted was obtained highest by methanol (29.66...

description This study focuses on identifying the phytochemical composition of Star anise (Illicium verum) extract with different polarity solvents, including n-hexane, distilled water, and methanol by using a maceration method. The percentage yield of compounds extracted was obtained highest by methanol (29.6615 %), followed by distilled water (19.1831%) and n-hexane (11.5475%). Standard phytochemical tests were conducted to elucidate the phytochemical profile further. The results revealed significant variations in the phytochemical content among the extracts obtained with different solvents. The foam, alkaline reagent, and ferric chloride tests confirmed the presence of saponins, flavonoids and tannins, and phenolic compounds, respectively. Specifically, methanol extract exhibited a higher concentration of phenolics, tannins, and flavonoid compounds compared to distilled water extract, while n-hexane extract showed superior content of saponins. These findings underscore the importance of solvent selection in optimizing the extraction of specific phytochemicals from Illicium verum. Overall, this study provides comprehensive insights into the phytochemical constituents of Illicium verum, essential for understanding its medicinal properties and potential applications in various industries
