Estimation of chlorophyll They are bound loosely to proteins but are readily extracted in organic solvents such as acetone or ether.
Method
•Calculate the amount of chlorophyll present in the extra using this following equations. 1)mg Chlorophyll (a/g)=12.7 (A 663)-2 (As 645) x V÷1000×W 2)mg Chlorophyll (b/g)=22.9 (A645)-4.68(A663)×V÷1000×W 3) mg total Chlorophyll=20.2(A645)+8.02(A663)×vV÷1000×W

Methods
• Calculation :-
Antioxidant activity
•The dried plant material was powdered by using a grinder. •It was extracted using maceration method with ethanol 70% as a solvent. •The maceration method has been used for 3 x 24 hours with solvent replacement every 24 hours.

Qualitative analysis:- •The total content of each of these phytochemicals is usually determined by carrying out phytochemical tests (based on colorimetry) for each of these secondary metabolites. •The secondary metabolite groups considered in this study were alkaloids, saponins, polyphenols, flavonoids, and tannins. •They exhibit significant pharmacological and biological properties and are hence used for medical purposes
Estimation of Tannins The total Tannin content in a Amaranthus spinosus plant sample was milligram to per gram of weight of the sample using the equations y=0.007x-o.043;with =0.992 The Tannin contents in the Amaranthus plant sample was found out 0.9mg/g
Estimation of Total Phenolics :- The total Phenols content in a Amaranthus spinosus plant sample was milligram to per gram of weight of the sample using the equations y=0.005x-0.234;with =0.941 The Phenol contents in the Amaranthus plant sample was found out 0.08mg/g
Estimation of Flavnoid The total Flavonoid content in a Amaranthus spinosus plant sample was milligram to per gram of weight of the sample using the equations y=0.016x-0.111;with =0.951 The Flavonoid contents in the Amaranthus plant sample was found out 0.6mg/g
Hydroponic •Hydroponics is a type of horticulture and a subset of hydroculture which involves growing plants, usually crops, without soil, by using water-based mineral nutrient solutions in aqueous solvents. •They are a rich source of vitamins, essential amino acids and have rich iron content. •. It is a well-known fact that green vegetables work like wonders in our diet.
