Amaranthus vegetable and seeds are highly nutritious. Four species of Amaranthus were planted in pots in a glass house and leaves were harvested. Fresh leaves were analyzed for protein and carbohydrate content and oven dried leaves for Fe, Ca, K and Na contents. Protein content was varied from 6.10-9.00g/100g of fresh leaves. The amount of carbohydrate in fresh leaves of all four species varied...

Vegetable amaranth is one of the popular leafy vegetable that occupies a prominent place in India owing to its high nutritive value and fast growing ability. The presence considerable genetic variability along with very phenotypic plasticity demands development stable genotypes secure sustainable production. present research was carried out quantify effect genotype x environment interaction on ...

Production of gluten-free pasta is offered. A new food product for a special purpose has been developed - made from whole-grain amaranth flour, which will be able to provide the daily rate fiber consumption. An analysis latest research and publications was conducted it found that Ukrainian foreign scientists are investigating use raw materials in technologies functional products. On basis analy...

In this paper, the extraction of polyphenols from amaranth seed using a Box–Benhken design four factors—ultra-turrax speed, solid-to-liquid ratio (RSL), methanol concentration and time—were studied. There were two responses studied for model: total phenolic content (TPC) flavonoid (TFC). The factors which influenced most TPC TFC RSL, ultra-turrax speed. Twelve acids (rosmarinic acid, p-coumaric...

Amaranth seeds contain oil with important nutritional properties, in particular, because of the presence essential fatty acids, high content minerals, vitamins, lysine and squalene. In this study, kinetics supercritical fluid extraction from three amaranth seed varieties has been investigated. The average was 58.2 g/kg, ranging 54.6 to 61.1 g/kg depends on varieties, while squalene ranged 3.3 3...

Field investigations are important tools for confirmation of the effectiveness of the organic manures on crop yield. As different N sources, this work presents a comparative study of the effects of urea, cow dung and poultry manure on plant height, stem length and diameter, leaf length, breadth and number accompanied with the fresh weight of plant, stem, leaf coupling stem leaf ratio and gross ...

The Zeolite Y as a support was modified by the incorporating of Fe and TiO2 in one single step using impregnation method. The synergistic effects between those components enhance the catalytic activity for the degradation of amaranth dye under ultrasonic irradiation with output power of 50 W and 40 kHz frequency. Different characterization techniques were used to elucidate the physical and chem...
