LPC: A Good Source of Cyanocobalamine (B12), Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) and Folic Acid (Vitamin B9)

Abstract

LPC of twenty plants was prepared. Cyanocobalamine (B₁₂), ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and folic acid (vitamin B₉) was estimated from LPC. Higher yield of vitamin B₁₂ (cynocobalamine) in wet LPC was recorded in Bennicasa hispida, Coccina grandis and Vigna mungo. The maximum yield of vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) and folic acid was recorded in Vigna mungo.
