Abstract

Since time immemorial, plants and their products have been the primary resource of food and medicines for mankind. Aegle marmelos commonly known as bael (or bel), belonging to the family Rutaceae, is a moderate sized, slender and aromatic tree. A number of chemical constituents and various therapeutic effects of leaves of Aegle marmelos have been reported by different workers. Extensive investigations have been carried out on different parts of Aegle marmelos and as a consequence, varied classes of compound viz., alkaloids, coumarins, terpenoids, fatty acids and amino acids have been isolated from its different parts.
