Abstract

The present study was under taken to investigate the biochemical characterization of Phyllanthus acidus, Phyllanthus emblica and Citrus limon. The results suggest that among the three varieties the level of storage polysaccharides (Total Carbohydrate & Starch) and total protein seems to be higher in Phyllanthus emblica than phyllanthus acidus and citrus limon. The amount of cholesterol in Phyllanthus acidus showed better level than the rest of the two varieties. When compared to Phyllanthus acidus and Phyllanthus emblica, the ascorbic acid content was found to be higher in Citrus limon. Phyllanthus emblica contain high amount of calciu m than the other two varieties. The amount of phosphorous and iron in Citrus limon posses better level than phyllanthus acidus and emblica. Thereby to conclude the fruits selected Phyllanthus acidus, Phyllanthus emblica and Citrus limon varieties showed very impressive biochemical co mponents which is of therapeutic and economic importance.
