Proximate Nutritive Values and Mineral Components ofWithania Somnifera(Linn.) Dunal

Analysis of Mineral Elements, Proximate and Nutritive value in Citrullus vulgaris Schrad. (Watermelon) seed extracts

Dietary elements, commonly known as dietary minerals are chemical elements required by living organisms other than the elements present in the common organic molecules. Dietary fibre and minerals are important for healthy functioning of the human body. The mineral nutrition is an important aspect and its pivotal role in human life provides healthy growth. The present study was undertaken to ana...

Assessment of Proximate and Phytochemical Composition for Evaluation of Nutritive Values of Some Plant Foods Obtained from Iran and India

Mineral Composition and Nutritive Value of Some Common Pasture Weeds

Organic dairy farmers often introduce alternative pasture species, such as chicory (Cichorium intybus) and narrow-leaved plantain (Plantago lanceolata), to their swards because of their higher mineral contents, yet they are concerned about the presence of weed species such as docks (Rumex spp.) and dandelion (Taraxacum officinale). The mineral content and nutritive value of both desired and les...

Nutriproteomics: identifying the molecular targets of nutritive and non-nutritive components of the diet.

The study of whole patterns of changes in protein expression and their modifications, or proteomics, presents both technological advances as well as formidable challenges to biological researchers. Nutrition research and the food sciences in general will be strongly influenced by the new knowledge generated by the proteomics approach. This review examines the different aspects of proteomics tec...
