represented the microscopic examination of simplicia powder of A. auriculiformis, showing the presence of parenchymal tissue and specific fibers. Furthermore, microscopic investigation of simplicia powder of H. tilliaceus displayed the presence of specific cover hair. In this circumstance, microscopic analysis is one of the simplest and cheapest methods to start with for forming the correct identification of the source materials from plants including medicinal plants. Therefore the phytochemical profile along with microscopic data will support the standardisation of clarity and purity of sample proof of identity.

... A little evidence on the phytochemical and physicochemical of North Sumatran mangrove was previously available regardless of the prominence of secondary metabolites from mangroves as possible medicinal bases. Five mangrove associates have recently characterized phytochemical, physicochemical and microscopic [12]. This present work thus purposed to determine the phytochemical, physicochemical, and microscopic investigation of chosen true mangrove photosynthetic organs, Acrostichum aureum, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, C. tagal, N. fruticans, and R. mucronata commonly thrive in North Sumatra, Indonesia. ...
This work describes the phytochemical, physicochemical, and microscopic investigation of preferred true mangrove leaves, i.e., Acrostichum aureum, Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Ceriops tagal, Nypa fruticans, and Rhizophora mucronata. Phytochemical screening was carried out on mangrove leaves to the established procedure. Physicochemical characteristics of photosynthetic mangrove tissues were detected by simplicized grain consisting of moisture content, water-soluble, ethanol-soluble, ash content and essay extract performed using the WHO technique. Microscopic measurement was performed based on the WHO procedure. Simplicity powder phytochemical screening shows a discrepancy between species, only saponin, and triterpenoid/phytosterol have been found in entire species. In disparity, phytochemical determination in hexane extract did not show any alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, saponins, and tannins, but only triterpenoids/phytosterols were detected in whole species. Physicochemical characteristics also show mixtures between the species and a significant result was less than 10 % water content as a drug development requirement. The microscopic investigation detected diverse kind of stomata in mangrove leaves, for example, B. gymnorhhiza and R. mucronata have an anomocytic type, A. aureum, and C. tagal contained anisocytic, only N. fruticans was distinguishable type due to monocotyledon. The existing work may afford prospective pharmacological characteristics from mangrove leaves.
