Nyctanthes arbor-tristis (Parijat / Night Jasmine)
High-Resolution Macro: Pinwheel Corollas

The Organicsio Advantage
Organicsio utilizes a proprietary shade-drying protocol for Nyctanthes arbor-tristis leaves to prevent the degradation of heat-sensitive iridoid glycosides (specifically Arbortristoside A & B). Our genotype is selected for high-yield alkaloid content and cultivated in heavy-metal-free zones, ensuring compliance with global pharmacopoeial standards for Ayurvedic and herbal formulations.
Botanical Morphology & Raw Material
Phytochemical Profile
The matrix is characterized by a high concentration of Iridoid Glycosides (Arbortristosides A, B, and C) which act as the primary bioactive markers for anti-inflammatory activity. Secondary metabolites include Nyctanthic acid (triterpenoid), Beta-sitosterol, and essential volatile oils rich in p-cymene in the floral extracts.
