ABSTRACT
In this project work the chloroform extract
from Neem leaves (Azadirachta indica) was subjected to Thin Layer
Chromatography, Phytochemical and pesticidal analysis. The Pesticidal
activities of different extracts of Neem leaf were studied. Results showed that
the methanol fraction of the Neem extract have pesticidal activity on the macro
organism (Eciton burchellii) used. The result of the Phytochemical screening
reveals that Terpenoid 4.253±0.17 (mg/g), Alkaloids 4.474±0.109 (mg/g),
Saponins 8.185±0.061 (mg/g), Flavonoids 4.343±0.047 (mg/g), HCN 0.34±0.02
(mg/g), Tannins 0.0601±0.0003 (mg/g) were found to be present. Extensive thin
layer chromatography profile of the crude and partitioned plant extracts
revealed different Phytochemicals using different solvent system.
