What is it about?
Anatomical observations supported by histochemical analysis can provide the type of secretory structure containing secondary metabolites and the content of secondary metabolites accumulated in these structures. Hence, This study aims to determine the presence of secondary metabolites contained in Pteris.

Why is it important?
Secondary metabolites were found in secretory tissues, vacuoles, and cytosol rhizomes and fronds of parenchymal cells in Pteris. Phytochemicals and pharmacologist need to consider the nature of plant parts because they may affect the type of secondary metabolite production.
Perspectives
This study aims to determine the presence of secondary metabolites contained in Pteris found in Tahura with histochemical analysis to provide more information for novel therapeutic agents by developed bioactive principles.
