Momordica charantia is a medicinal plant which is widely used to treat several diseases. We have identified the phytosterols in the pericarp, skin and seeds parts of M. charantia fruit via NMR spectroscopy. Multivariate statistical analysis showed a clustering of the metabolic profiles of seeds and pericarp, and their clear separation from the metabolic profile of the skin.
