“…The OP1 and OP2 samples are rich in these pigments due to the presence of purslane in their composition. This agrees with other investigations which mentioned that purslane has an elevated content of alpha and beta chlorophylls (Nurfaizah et al, 2015). Our results showed that foliage from OP1 samples is a good source of photosynthetic pigments; in addition, the proportion of carotenoids that OP1 contains are similar to other food supplements.…”
