Preparation of plant extract
The extracts of leaf and stem of M. quadrifolia were prepared. For this, 20g of leaf and stem powder of M. quadrifolia was soaked in 200 ml of distilled water and
methanol separately and kept in shaker for 48h. After 48h, it was filtered through Whatman no. 1 filter paper and then the volume of supernatant was concentrated
at 40 °C using hot air oven. The concentrated aqueous and methanolic extracts of leaf and stem of M. quadrifolia were used for qualitative phytochemical
analysis. The powdered plant materials were used in the estimation of alkaloids, tannins and saponins.
