Özet:

 The spice known as Chrysobalanus icaco L. Chrysobalanaceae was found near the coast of the Niger Delta in Nigeria. A survey on the ethnobotany of C. icaco seeds was conducted in Warri, Abraka, Delta State, Ezetu village, and Onitsha. Standard techniques were used to determine the pharmacognostic profile, phytochemical screening, physiochemical parameters, and elemental analysis. The findings showed that the Ezetu village people utilized the seeds traditionally for stomachache, anti-diarrhea, and post-child delivery. Histochemical analysis revealed the presence of tannins and proteins in the seed. The seed powders physicochemical parameters are as follows: pH 1 g100 ml distilled water 6.000.00 and pH 10 g100 ml, water-soluble ash 1.50.00, alcohol soluble ash 1.00.00, acid insoluble acid 0.250.00, acid soluble ash 1.00.00, and sulfated ash 2.00.00. The seed oils physicochemical properties were: density 0.9360.0, refractive index 1.4910.00, iodine value 15.90.01, peroxide value 25.310.01, acid value 29.440.00, and ester value 34.750.21. The elements discovered in the seed included lead, copper, nickel, chromium, cadmium, potassium, sodium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, and zinc. Phytochemicals found in the extract include reducing sugars, proteins, amino acids, fats, oils, alkaloids, tannins, phenolic compounds, flavonoids, cholesterol, steroids, terpenoids, triterpenoids, phytosterols, saponins, and cardiac glycosides. Quantitative phytochemical results include total phenolics 11.630.03, total flavonoids 2.350.06, total alkaloids 5.500.03, and total tannins 12.480.01. Consequently, it is possible to verify the authenticity of the seeds using these pharmacognostic features.
