Abstract:
In this study, aims to assess the phytochemicals screening for chloroform, acetone and water extracts of Mentha spicata, Solenostemma argel, Ocimum basilicum, Linum usitatissimum, and Ziziphus spina- christi, from the Sudan. The results showed the phytochemical screening the presence of tannins, saponins, flavonoids, terpenoids and/or stroids and alkaloids.
