      Indian Drugs 44(8), 640 (2007). TLC, HPTLC and UV spectrophotometric methods have been developed and evaluated to compare the colour properties of saffron and Nyctanthes arbor-tristis which shows an orange red colour. HPTLC and TLC of methanolic extracts of saffron and calyx of Nyctanthes arbor-tristis on silica gel with ethyl acetate - isopropanol - water 13:5:2. Both extracts showed a major zone with hRf 23 corresponding to crocin, the major colour constituent of saffron. The presence of crocin was confirmed by UV spectra. TLC, HPTLC and UV data confirm the coloring similarity of Nyctanthes arbor-tristis.
