LIMAU KUIT Citrus amblycarpa #259794553
Description
Lime kuit is a local orange typical of South Kalimantan. The people of Banjar usually use the juice of the lime flesh as a spice or flavor enhancer in cooking. The use of various fruit flesh by the community causes an increase in the accumulation of fruit skin waste. The skin of the lime peel contains saponins, tannins, flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids and triterpenoids which have the potential to be used as medicinal ingredients in wound healing. Therefore, to strengthen the utilization of this potential, quantitative phytochemical tests are needed to determine the levels of each compound in the lime peel.
