Abstract
Evaluación de la micromorfología foliar, fitoquímica y composición
mineral de las hojas de Justicia secunda Valh
Justicia secunda es una planta medicinal que pertenece a la familia Acanthaceae, es muy utilizada en la medicina tradicional para el
tratamiento y manejo de una amplia gama de dolencias. En este
estudio, la selección/análisis de fitoquímicos, minerales y características micro-morfológicas de las hojas de J. secunda se evaluaron utilizando procedimientos estándar. Los datos generados para
el contenido fitomineral y fitoquímico de las hojas así como la prueba quimio-microscópica y los rasgos anatómicos foliares de las hojas que revelaron rasgos característicos distintos serán de utilidad
en la sistemática, adecuada identificación, autenticación y estandarización de esta planta para fines medicinales propósitos.

In this study, the phytochemicals screening/analysis, minerals and micro-morphological characteristics of the leaves of J. secunda were evaluated using standard procedures. The data generated for the phytomineral and phytochemical contents of the leaves as well as the chemo-microscopic test and foliar anatomical features of the leaves which revealed distinct characteristic features will be useful in the systematics, proper identification, authentication and standardization of this plant for medicinal purposes.
