Electrochemical study of xerophytic medicinal plants pongamia pinnata of family has been studied in vitro condition employing three pairs of electrodes in different seasons. The various electrical activities were determined by measuring their bioelectrode potential (BEP) regulating vital physiological process occurring in the living cell based on redox process. The effect of catalyst (CuSO4), respiratory substrate (C6H12O6) and primary salts have been studied. The BEP arose in the system due to formation of charge transfer complex, between bio-sap and electrodes. Numerous graphs were plotted between BEP and time to co-relate the results. The analyses of natural products such as chlorophylls, Carotenoides, amino acids etc have also been carried out.
