Abstract
The investigation was carried out to determine the possible bioactive components of whole plant of Aristolochia bracteata using GC-MS. The chemical compositions of the ethanol extract of whole plant of Aristolochia bracteata were investigated using Perkin-Elmer Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry while the Mass Spectra of the compounds found in the extract was matched with the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) Library. Eleven compounds were identified; α-D-glucose (27.88%) was found to be major component followed by 3-O-Methyl-dglucose (24.54%), Linolenic acid, trimethylsilyl ester (17.81%), Hexadecanoic acid, trimethylsilyl ester (9.46%) etc.
