ABSTRACT Clematis is a botanical source for various pharmaceutically active components, which has long been used in conventional medicine. The present study aim is to analyse the phytochemicals present in Clematis gouriana Roxb. exDC. leaf extracts by using Qualitative phytochemical analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and also DNA sequencing of Clematis gouriana Roxb. exDC. The phytochemical analysis Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis were performed using standard methods. The FTIR spectroscopic studies revealed different characteristic peak values with various functional groups. The present study generated the FTIR spectrum profile for the medicinally important plant. Increasing interest in Clematis medicinal resources has led to additional discoveries of triterpenoid saponins, flavonoids, coumarins, alkaloids and many other compounds in various Clematis species. It is essential to study more species for both the sustainable utilization of Clematis, medicinal resources and finding novel compounds with potential clinical utility. Systems biology and omics technologies will play an increasingly important role in future medicinal research involving bioactive compounds of Clematis.
