Asparagus racemosus is an herb of Asparagus or Liliaceae family. It is commonly utilized in human and animal husbandry care management. Asparagus racemosus has powerful antioxidant anti-inflammatory uterine tonic antimicrobial, anti-cancer, and galactagogue properties. Shatavarin is a steroidal saponin found in Asparagus racemosus roots. In this experiment, roots of Asparagus racemosus were collected from Herbal Garden, Ethnos Veterinary Herbal Product Research and Development Centre, Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University, Orathanadu, Thanjavur District, Tamil Nadu. Shatavarin IV was identified and quantified by a simple precise and reliable High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography technique.a
