In order to elucidate the individual contributions of the three ingredients of Triphala from molecular perspective, the individual ingredients were used for the untargeted LCMS/MS analysis. Fresh fruits (PE, TC, and TB) were collected, processed into coarse powders, and sequentially extracted {hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate}. LCMS/MS data analysis was performed on the resultant metabolites, with bioinformatics tools employed f
