The research was carried out at the department of chemistry, Joseph Sarwuan Tarkka university makurdi. Mahogany tree gum was collected from mahogany trees within the university campus. Extraction of mahogany tree gum extract was done using methanol extraction method. Phytochemical screening was carried out on the extract to evaluate the presence of essential phytochmicals in the extract. The extract were also subjected to UV analysis and FTIR analysis using UV-visible spectroscopy and FTIR Fourier transformed infra-red respectively to determine the presence of magnesium oxide and functional groups in the extract. The results showed that phytochemicals such flavonoids, alkaloids, phlobatannins and tannins were present. The FTIR Spectra in this research showed medium absorption band at 3403.47 and N-H functional group. Strong absorption for O-H functional group at 2924.18 band was observed and medium intensity for C-H stretching frequencies of 2852.81 and O-H band appeared at 2347.43 frequencies and it shows a strong Intensity. The research concluded that mahogany tree gum can be used as good sources functional group and can be used as source medicinal products since it contain phytochemical like flavonoids, alkaloid and tannins, it is also recommended that more research should be carried out to determine the application of this functional grouped and phytochmical in the different areas of human endeavours....Preview Download Preview +Other Chemistry project topics and materials you might be interested in»Minerals and phytochemical analysis of watermelon seeds (Citrullus Lanatus)»Production of hair growth oil and body lotion from Pumpkin and Pawpaw seed oil»Kinectic study and heavy metals removals from used engine oil treated with groundnut shells»Synthesis and exploration of ion nanoparticles using costus after flower extract as a reducing agent»Characteristics of humic substances from strongly acidic soil remediated and restored using humin enhanced biodegradable waste materials»Ethanol production from cocoyam peels»Characteristics of humic substances from strongly acidic soil remediated and restored using CNB-TECH end product»Comparative study of physico-chemical properties and essential mineral of some fruit juice orange and tomato»Biodiesel production using soybean oil and characterization»Extraction and characterization of avocado seed oil»Analysis of the quality of groundwater (boreholes)»Spectroscopic and phytochemical evaluation of methanolic extract of mahogany tree gum for possible biosynthetic process»Production of biolubricant from Carica Papaya seed oil»Phytochemical and proximate analysis of Combretum Zenkeri Ubi»Biosynthesis of bark peel of aerial yam-magnesium oxide nano composites for biosensing application
