Estimation of Thiamine, Riboflavin and Pyridoxine from LPC of Some Plants

Abstract

Thiamine, riboflavin and pyridoxine were estimated from leaf protein concentrate (LCP) of twenty plants viz Adhatoda vasica, Benincasa hispida, Brassica oleracea V. botrytis, Brassica oleracea V. Capitata, Cassia tora, Centella Asiatica, Coccinia grandis, Coriandrum sativum, Cucusmis sativus, Eclipta alba, Erythrina varegata, Medicago sativa, Moringa oleofera, Phaseolus valgaris, Raphanus sativus, Sesbania grandiflora, Solanum nigrum, Trigonella foenum graecum and Vigna mungo. Higher yield of thiamine was recorded in LPC of Brassica oleracea V. botrytis, Brassica oleoracea V. capitata, Coriandrum sativum, Raphanus sativus and Vigna mungo. LPC of Adhatoda vasica and Trigonella foenum graecum yielded maximum riboflavin while more pyridoxine was estimated from Brassica oleracea, V. botrytis and Bennicasa hispida.
