Applied Biological Chemistry

Table 1 Total phenolic content of respective extracts from different parts of the potato (tuber, flesh, and peel) and micropropagated potato tuber

Samples	Total phenolics (mg GAE per g of extract)
Samples	Acetone	Methanol	80% Methanol
Tuber	28.89 ± 0.28 aA	29.93 ± 1.28 aA	39.02 ± 2.96 bA
Microtuber	63.17 ± 4.59 aB	73.87 ± 7.74 bB	44.80 ± 4.26 cB
Flesh	22.83 ± 0.43 aC	28.58 ± 1.32 aA	27.74 ± 1.28 aC
