Rural people in Wayanad district of Kerala are using fresh fruit of T. uliginosa for the treatment of dysentery and diarrhea, and also used for culinary purposes. But only stray reports on the phytochemical constituents of the fruits. Preliminary phytochemical screening of methanolic extract of fruit revealed the prescence of phenolic compounds in high amounts. Hence an attempt was made to identify its phytoconstituents of T.uliginosa fruit through HPLC analysis. The analysis revealed the presence of 15 compounds, most of them are phenolic compounds. Phenolic compounds having potential anticancer and antioxidant properties, hence the result clearly shows the potential phytotherapeutic value of this species.
