Abstract:
Balanites aegyptiaca is a plant of arid lands producing edible fruits called desert date. This study has undertaken to evaluate nutraceutical potential of Balanites aegyptiaca fruits towards its androgenic effect. The bio-guided phytochemical screening of the mesocarp of B. aegyptiaca fruits revealed the presence of secondary metabolites including saponins, tannins, coumarins, sterols, polyphenols and reducing sugars.
