As we all know that there are number of methods for the estimation of leaf pigments mainly chlorophyll and carotenoids, but i want to know out of DMSO and acetone which method is best?
There is no fixed rules, as several factors control the efficiency of pigments extraction e.g., plant species, extractant solve and extraction duration. I used methanol and acetone and observed that methanol was more effective in extracting chlorophyll from many vegetable leaves.
