Abstract: Prosipis juliflora is a herb which is well known for its ethanobotanical importance in Tribals. In present, study preliminary phytochemicals screening was performed to identify different classes of metabolites by using various organic solvents viz. petroleum, ether, chloroform, acetone, ethanol, methanol and distilled water also. The test was performed for tannins, saponins, phenols, flavonoids and terpenoids. The results revealed the presence of these phytochemicals with different intensity depends upon various solvents. Ethanol show best results for the screening of it is very polar molecules and can dissolve both polar and non polar substance. The bioactive compounds present in the plants are responsible for medicinal properties of the plants. Hence, by the efforts that should be geared upto exploit the biomedical applications of the screened plant due to presence of certain classes of bioactive compounds for their full utilization.
