- Abstract
The present communication deals with the investigation of lipid contents of some wild fruits of Diospyros melanoxylon, Pithecellobium dulce, Carrisa congesta, Lantena camera, opuntia and Aegle marmelis. The total crude lipid determination was conducted using conventional and ultrasound assisted extraction technique using methanol, methanol-chloroform and petroleum ether as a solvent. It has been observed that ultrasound assisted extraction is superior in terms of time (1-2 hr) and yield of the crude lipids. As there is no detailed work done on lipid profile of nutritious wild fruits as such, present study focused on the food value and exploration of underutilized edible fruits in Maharashtra, India.
