In this work, the chemical composition and physicochemical properties of 155 Indian seeds (belonging to 49 families) are reported. Moisture and ash were measured with reference protocols from AOAC; total polyphenols and flavonoids were measured with spectrophotometric methods after extraction with organic solvents, and mineral elements were determined by X-ray fluorescence spectrophotometry. Total phenolic compounds, flavonoids and mineral contents (Al, Ba, Ca, Cl, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, P, Rb, S, Sr, Ti, V and Zn) were found to vary in the ranges 182–5000, 110–4465 and 687–7904 mg/100 g (DW), respectively. Noticeably, polyphenol contents higher than 2750 mg/100 g were observed in 18 seeds. In addition, mineral contents >5000 mg/100 g were detected in the seeds from Cuminum cyminum, Foeniculum vulgare, Commiphora wightii, Parkia javanica, Putranjiva roxburghii, Santalum album and Strychnos potatorum. Botanical and taxonomical variations in the proximate characteristics of the examined seeds are also discussed. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 4.6 2022 CHEMISTRY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY 63 / 178 = 0.354 2022 Q2 T2 BIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 97 / 285 = 0.34 2022 Q2 T2 0.704 2022 Pharmaceutical Science 2022 Q1 Chemistry (miscellaneous) 2022 Q2 Drug Discovery 2022 Q2 Physical and Theoretical Chemistry 2022 Q2 Organic Chemistry 2022 Q2 Analytical Chemistry 2022 Q2 Medicine (miscellaneous) 2022 Q2 Molecular Medicine 2022 Q3 6.7 2022 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Cervera-Mata, Ana Chakradhari, Suryakant Singh Patel, Khageshwar Towett, Erick K.
