Biochemical Information from the leaves of Pterocarpus mildraedii
Keywords:
Pterocarpus mildraedii, leaf, proximate, elemental and phytochemical compositionAbstract
Given the wider spread of the Pterocarpus mildraedii plant in several parts of Nigeria and procurement of nutritional and composition records is most needed in the scientific database because it may provide baseline data for further research or application. The present study report results from proximate, elemental and GCMS of Pterocarpus mildraedii leaf. The leaf of this plant is found to be rich in proximate parameters and in some essential elements such as K, Ca, Na and Mn. The major phytochemicals identified from the plant leaf were methyl petroselinate, methyl isoheptadecanoate and methyl 14-methylpentadecanoate.. The study review previous literature on the identified phytochemicals and concluded that they contain essential oils that display strong biological activity and could be useful for pharmaceutical and other applications.
