Abstract
Mature oil palm leaflets are readily available as byproducts from oil palm plantations.α‐Tocopherol and chlorophyll contents of palm leaflets obtained from oil palm trees of different ages and varieties were determined.α‐Tocopherol and chlorophyll contents were in the range of 0.14–0.28% and 0.23–0.31%, respectively, in palm leaflets on wet bases. The molar ratios ofα‐tocopherol to chlorophyll were 0.78–2.37.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
