This research aims to quantify metabolites in naturally occurring and processed Aloe vera, evaluating their similarities and differences.
Samples of Aloe vera and processed gel evaluated through metabolite extraction and NMR spectroscopy.
Comparison made using the Biological Magnetic Resonance Data Bank (BMRB) for peak analysis.
Metabolites identified linked to their antioxidant and therapeutic properties.
Processed gel exhibited 81 metabolites, while the Aloe vera plant had 50.
Several common metabolites were identified, including D-Fructose-6-Phosphate and Mannose compounds.
Notably, preservatives were present in the gel but absent in the natural plant sample.

Matak et al. (2026) studied this question.
