In this work, Tridax Procumbens Extracts (TPE) were blended with Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), and film was developed through the casting method. The phytochemical screening of the TPE/CMC film was carried out and found the presence of carbohydrates, tannins, saponins, and cardiac glycosides. The presence of elements such as C, O, Na, P, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, and Nb in TP/CMC film was confirmed through EDX.
