Extraction and Quantification of Chlorophylls, Carotenoids, Phenolic Compounds, and Vitamins from Halophyte Biomasses

Halophytes are salt-tolerant plants, and they have been utilised as healthy, nutritious vegetables medicinal herbs. Various studies shown halophytes to be rich in health-beneficial compounds with antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory antimicrobial effects, cytotoxic properties. Despite their potential, these plants still underutilised agriculture industrial applications. This review includes the state-of-the-art literature concerning contents of proanthocyanidins (also known condensed tannins), total phenolic compounds, photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll carotenoids), vitamins various halophyte biomasses. extraction analytical methods also considered. The study shows that species exhibited potential for use not only novel food products but production nutraceuticals ingredients cosmetics pharmaceuticals.
