Abstract
One hundred and forty-four extracts have been tested for the presence of saponins, using the method of froth formation, precipitate formation by acid hydrolysis, Liebermann-Buchard reaction on the acid hydrolysate, and hemolytic activity of the extracts. Among the samples tested, thirteen extracts showed positive saponin reaction in all the tests employed and one hundred and thirty-six showed positive in one or more tests of saponins. The results are tabulated.
