Abstract
The aim of this research was to study and determined some physical and chemical properties of local Matricaria chamomilla One of the chemical properties are Moisture, total ash percent and total soluble solids .Which were 4.84%,11.16%and 1.500% respectively .As well as soluble ash in water and acid was estimated as 58.71 mg/gm 30.07 mg /gm respectively.On the other side physical properties was studied like refractive index (RI),density ,color , viscosity and pH and their values were 355,0.9938gm/cm3,0.218,8.9177 poise and the pH value was 4.0 respectivelyPercent of reducing sugar and proteins were determined and their value 20%,1.4% respectively.Thin layer chromatography(TLC) technique was used to detect mono reducing sugar and was gave clear spots indicating about glucose and fructose.FTIRtechnique for infrared was used as a finger print about the active gradient of organic compound in the research samples,like aliphatic,hydroxyl,carboxyl groups.
