Abstract (2. Language): 
This research article is aiming at histochemical investigation of some medicinal plants. For this, we choose three species used in folk medicine to determine their histochemical investigation: Adhatoda zeylanica, Ruta graveolence and Vitex negundo. In general, these plants are used in folk medicine in the treatment of gonorrhoea, antiperiodic, bronchitis, infected wounds, scrotal swelling, synovitis, arthritis pain and rheumatic arthritis. For histochemical studies the free hand sections of leaves and stem were taken and treated with the respective reagent to localize components, viz. starch, protein, tannin, saponin, fat, glucosides and alkaloids in the tissues.
