Abstract
The levels of vitamins B‚‚ (riboflavin) and B‚ (pyridoxine) in the main edible parts of five crops in the Amaranthaceae family namely Amaranthus spp. (amaranth grain) Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris var. cicla (Swiss chard leaf) B. vulgaris subsp. vulgaris var. conditiva (beet root) Chenopodium quinoa (quinoa grain) and Spinacia oleracea (spinach leaf) were analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography with a fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD). This analysis detected both vitamins in all of the samples. The highest content of vitamin B‚‚ was found in spinach leaf (0.439 0.094 g/g FW). Amaranth grain (0.431 0.023 g/g FW) and quinoa grain (0.419 0.055 g/g FW) showed similar vitamin B‚‚ content to that of spinach leaf. The highest content of vitamin B‚ was found in quinoa grain (0.321 0.030 g/g FW) followed by amaranth grain (0.184 0.003 g/g FW). Taken together the main edible parts of crops in the Amaranthaceae family especially quinoa grain might be a good vegetable source for the consumption of both vitamins and these results could serve as valuable preliminary data for estimating both vitamin contents of crops in the Amaranthaceae family.
