Abstract
Objective: To study the microscopic evaluation and physicochemical analysis of Origanum
majorana Linn leaves. Methods: Fresh and dried powdered leaf samples was studies for its
morphology, microscopy, organoleptic characters, fluorescence analysis and various other WHO
recommended methods for standardisation. Results: Leaves are simple, petiolated, ovate to
oblong-ovate, (0.5-1.5 cm) long, (0.2-0.8 cm) wide, with obtuse apex, entire margin, reticulate
veination and symmetrical but tapering base. The microscopy revealed the dorsiventral nature
of the leaf. Both the surfaces show presence of numerous covering trichomes, diacytic stomata
and thin walled, wavy epidermal cells. The covering trichomes are multicellular, uniseriate, thin
walled and pointed. In the midrib region, the epidermis is followed by collenchyma and vascular
bundle (xylem and phloem). Whereas; the mesophyll exhibited only palisade cells and spongy
parenchyma. Conclusions: It can be concluded that the pharmacognostic profile can serve as
tool for developing standards for identification, quality and purity of Origanum majorana Linn
leaves.
