The result from the phytochemical analysis of ethanolic
root bark extract of C. sieberiana showed; high amount of
Carbohydrates using Molisch’s test, high amount of Reducing
Sugars using Fehling’s test, high amount of Tanins usingFerric chloride test, Lead Actate test and Bromine water test,
high amount of Flavonoids using Sulfuric acid test and Ferric
chloride test, high amount of Saponins using Frothing test,
high amount of Steroids and Triterpenoid using Liebermann–
Buchard test and Salkowaski test, and also high amount of
Cardiac Glycosides using Keller-Kiliani’s test, using Borntrager’s
test Anthraquinones was in moderate amount while using
Dragendorff’s test and Wagner’s test Alkaloids scored low
[Table 5]. The ethanolic stem bark extract of C. sieberiana
indicated; high amount of flavonoids in Sulfuric acid test and
Ferric chloride test, high amount high amount of reducing
sugars in Fehling’s test, high amount of carbohydrates in
Molisch’s test, high amount of cardiac glycosides in Keller-
Kiliani’s test, high amount of tannins in Ferric chloride test,
Lead Actate test and Bromine water test, in Salkowaski’s test,
Steroids and Triterpenoids were high but in Liebermann–
Buchards test they were both low, there was moderate amount of
Antraquinones in Borntrager’s test and Saponins and Alkaloids
were low using Frothing’s test, Dragendorff’s test and Wagner’s,
