The latest study was performed to investigate the ethno pharmacological potential of ethnobotanical significant plant, Olea ferruginea Royle that is a member of the Oleaceae family. The stem of this plant and leaf powders were macerated in different (polar and non-polar) solvents. The phytochemical study showed the occurrence of saponins, alkaloids, anthraquinonines, flavonoids, minimizing sugars, cardiac glycosides, tannins and terpenoids in reasonable quantities in Olea ferruginea, as verified by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) analysis. Based on the findings of the current research, the traditional use of this targeted plant of the Oleaceae family as food, fodder, feed, and medicinal seems acceptable and therefore justifiable.
