The present study deals with the GC MS analysis of one medicinal plant, ‘StrigadensifloraL.Strigadensiflora is a hemiparasitic plant with small white flowers harms the root systems of crops. Although parasitic, this plant has some ethno-medicinal uses. The plant Strigadensiflorawas collected from the nearby hills at Chengalpattu, Tamil Nadu. The ethyl acetate extract of the aerial parts of the plant was subjected to GC MS study following standard protocols. It was observed that some very important molecules such as 7-Octadecyne, 2-methyl-, n-Hexadecanoic acid, 2-((Octan-2-yloxy)carbonyl)benzoic acid, Sulfurous acid, butyl heptadecyl ester, Campesterol, Stigmasterol, .beta.-Sitosterol, .beta.-Sitosterol, Betulin were shown in the GC MS profile. These molecules do have medicinal role which could contribute to the medicinal value of this plant. Further work is needed to substantiate the medicinal role of this plant.
