Elaeocarpus sphaericus fruits are used in treatment of head related troubles, epileptic fits, rheumatism, typhoid fever, dysentery and diarrhea. The present study will assist in standardization for quality, purity and sample identification. Various standardization parameters like morphological characters, microscopic evaluation, physicochemical evaluations (loss on drying, ash values, extractive values), preliminary phytochemical screening and TLC chromatographic profile of the extract were carried out and the qualitative parameters were reported. These studies provide referential information for correct identification and standardization of this plant material.
