dc.description.abstractSpermacoce princeae is an annual flowering herb endemic to tropical Asia, Africa, and India. Spermacoce is a genus of the family Rubiaceae comprising about 275 species. In this study, qualitative phytochemical screening was done on different crude extracts (stems and leaves) of Spermacoce prince and the results revealed the presence of flavonoids, sterols, alkaloids, terpenoids, saponin,s and tannins in both leaves and stems, and absence of coumarins, steroids and glycosides in both leaves and stems. The study concluded that the fluctuations in the phytochemical profiles in the results of this study and those of one other study conducted in Kenya on the same plant may be due to differences in geographical conditions.
