A simple, selective, sensitive and precise high performance thin layer chromatographic technique was followed to determine the diversity within two cytotypes of P. angulata. Fruit, stem, leaf and root samples extracted in n-hexane were used to quantify phenols and phytosterols and methanolic extracts for triterpinoids. The amounts of phytochemical differ in both the cytotypes of the same species.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
