Phytochemical studies, thin layer chromatography and gc-ms profiling of olea europaea twig extract / Muhammad Nur Syahir Che Johan

This study was carried out to investigated the phytochemical analysis and determine
the compounds in extraction twig of Olea europaea. The compounds perform were
found out to be alkaloids and saponins by using screening process while all the
compounds were presence except terpenoids by using TLC process in ethanol extract.
In ethyl acetate extract, all the compounds were absence by using screening process
while TLC process only flavonoids and terpenoids were appeared. For the hexane
extract, only terpenoids was giving positive result by using screening process but
from the TLC result, all the compounds were presence by giving positive result. For
determining the compounds in extraction twig of Olea europaea by using GC-MS,
two solvents had been used namely hexane and petroleum ether. For the result
indicated that petroleum ether extracts show more compounds than hexane extracts
which 5 compounds were presences.
