BIOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF LEAVES OF SOME MEDICINAL PLANTS OF MARATHWADA REGION IN MAHARASHTRA
Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
The seasonal variation of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid have been investigated in leaves of Butea monosperma, Madhuca indica, Syzygium cumini and Mimusops elengi are important medicinal plants. Comparative account of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid content of leaves of three medicinal plants revealed that, the highest amount of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid content in the leaves of Sesbania cannabina (3.2 mg/g fresh wt.), (2.76 mg/g fresh wt.) and (1.44 mg/g fresh wt.) in summer seasons and comparative lower amount of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and carotenoid content in the leaves of Sesbania cannabina (3.2 mg/g fresh wt.), (2.76 mg/g fresh wt.) and (1.44 mg/g fresh wt.) in summer seasons.
