I use 3 g dry sample for extraction and get 83 mg dry extract. from 83 mg I used 60 mg for folio-ciocalteu assay and get 60 mg/g TPC. I want to find the % yield of the TPC. anyone please help me how I can find this.
but I am confuse here I get extract 83 mg. from this 83 I use 60 mg for determination of TPC. is the 4.98 mg TPC will be remain same? Karen A. Darbinyan
83mg is the total amount of extract you got from 3g dry sample, but the polyphenol concentration of your extract is only 60mg/g. therefore, your polyphenol yield is (63mg/g x 83mg/1000)/3=1.66mg/gdry sample, that is 0.166%.
