description | Studies on the cytotoxicity effects, antitumour components and their mechanism of
action of S. crispus and L. inermis were carried out in this study. The nutrients and
non-nutrients composition of L. inermis were determined to investigate whether the
leaves are suitable for herbal tea preparation. The crude protein, ether extract, ash
and moisture contents were also determined. Ash samples were further analysed to
investigate water insoluble ash, water-soluble ash and alkalinity according to the
International standard ISO 1576- 1975 (E) and ISO 1 578- 1975 (E) methods, whereas
acid insoluble ash was also determined. Carbohydrate content was determined
following the Anthrone method. In fresh L. inermis leaves, the moisture content
forms the bulk of tissue weight with a mean value of 69.4%. This plant was found to
contain high amounts of minerals, such as potassium (29455 mg/100g), calcium
(2654 mg/1 00g), sodium (4094 mg/ 100g), iron (266 mg/100g) and phosphorus (550
mg/ 100g). |
