Abstract

Sixteen vegetable food extracts were screened for the presence of saponin with the methods of foaming test, hemolytic test and Liebermann-Burchard reaction. Six samples were found to contain saponin. The ethanal extract of six positive samples and its hydrolysates, sapogenin parts and sugar parts were applied t.l.c to detect saponin moiety.
