Among the fruits studied were Garcinia atroviridis, Canarium sp. and Averrhoa belimbi L. HCA captured high interest for its potential function as an appetite suppressor. Using FTIR, it was investigated that Garcinia atroviridis had the nearest IR profile to obtain the HCA extract. On the other hand, Averrhoa belimbi showed the worst profile and could be concluded that it doesn’t contain any HCA. 2011-03-22T02:59:08Z 2011-03-22T02:59:08Z 2006-12-19 Working Paper p.1-4 http://eprints.utm.my/1764/1/HCA.pdf http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/11351 en Proceedings of the 20th Symposium of Malaysian Chemical Engineers (SOMChE) 2006 Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) & Institut Jurutera Kimia Malaysia (IJKM)
