The present study reveals the morphological characteristics, organoleptic and fluorescence analysis by using various chemicals and reagents to examine the presence of phytochemicals visually in powdered samples of leaves and flowers of Cassia auriculata. The qualitative analysis represents the presence of various phytochemicals viz., steroids, reducing sugars, sugars, alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, Anthraquinones and amino acids in crude extracts (aqueous, ethanol and petroleum ether) of leaves and flowers of Cassia auriculata. The presence of minerals i.e., potassium, phosphorous, sulphur, calcium, were observed in leaves and flowers of Cassia auriculata by qualitatively. Quantitative analysis revealed maximum amount of flavonoids in flowers of Cassia auriculata and lesser amounts of alkaloids were recorded in leaves and flowers of Cassia respectively.
