Abstract: In the present study, effect of different physical factors like sunlight, heat, pH and long-term storage on extract and herbal formulation has been studied to determine its stability under varying physical conditions. Extract and herbal formulation were exposed to varying conditions of the parameters chosen for a specific time period, and then observed the effect as a function of change in MIC of extract against the Alternaria solani. Active principles present in Cassia fistula are highly susceptible to change in physical environment. However it is found that extract and herbal formulation of Cassia fistula can be stored for 12 months, remains stable at alkaline pH, can stand with exposure to sunlight and high temperature. Hence a little favourable manipulation of physical conditions could improve its shelf life and can be used as fungicides for controlling microorganisms.
