Quantification of chlorophyll content in leaves of avicennia germinans, laguncularia racemosa, durio zibethinus, garcinia mangostana, spinacia oleracea, piper betle, piper sarmentosum and centella asiatica
This study aimed to determine chlorophyll concentrations in Avicennia germinans, Laguncularia racemosa, Durio zibethinus, Garcinia mangostana, Spinacia oleracea, Piper betle, Piper sarmentosum, and Centella asiatica. The analytical procedures required 250 mg of leaf sample to be macerated with 10 ml...
