Phytochemical analysis aims to know the secondary metabolites. According to Simões et. al. (2010), metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that are continuously occurring in each cell, being divided into primary and secondary. Beings and general m have primary metabolism (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids). Plants, micro-organisms and a few animals also have secondary metabolism (whose products, although not necessarily essential for the producing organism, guarantee advantages for their survival and the perpetuation of their species, in its ecosystem). Such metabolites can trigger reactions in the body, which according to dosage can be toxic or beneficial, which is why there is interest in the study of plant extracts (FRANCO et al., 2021).
