Comparative study of primary metabolites in differe nt plant parts of Clitoria ternatea (L.), Guazuma ulmifolia (Lam.) & Madhuca i ndica (Gmel.)
Abstract In recent times, focus on plant research has increased all over the world and a large body of evidence has collected to show immense potential of medicinal plants used in various traditional systems. Use of plant based drugs and chemicals for curing various ailments and personal adornment is as old as human civilization. The goal of research work is to estimate primary metabolites such as protein, lipid, starch, phenol,and carbohydrates in different plant parts which are present in different proportion in plant species viz. Clitoria ternatea , Guazuma ulmifolia, Madhuca indica. The highest amount of soluble sugar was observed 129.0 mg/gdw, protein 67.0 mg/gw in leaf of G. ulmifolia, phenol 46.0 mg/gdw in root of M. indica, lipid 42.0 mg/gdw in root
