Phytochemistry
The study of chemical substances present in plants is known as phytochemistry. These substances are responsible for the distinctive traits that plants have, such as flavour, aroma, colour, and texture. Primary metabolites and secondary metabolites are the two main divisions of phytochemicals. The substances necessary for a plant's growth and development, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids, are known as primary metabolites. Small levels of compounds called secondary metabolites are known to aid in communication, pollination, and plant defence. The secondary metabolite capsaicin, which is present in chilli peppers and is responsible for their heat, is an illustration. Numerous industries, including medicine, agriculture, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics, use phytochemistry. For instance, phytochemicals are utilised in the creation of novel medications.
