The bark of the ZJ contains various phytochemicals such as terpenes, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, terpenoids, phenolic acids, saponins, etc. The further study has been performed for pharmacognostical and phytochemical study including qualitative as well as quantitative estimation of extract using number of evaluation tests and methods.
