This research study describes recent advances in understanding the effects of addition organic acids, such as acetic, lactic, citric and phytic on process plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) Ti using an alkaline bath. As developed over workpiece is central to determine particular morphological structural features growing oxide, focus then inter-relationships between electrolyte resultant regime...

The objective of this work is to identify and eliminate antinutritional factors in the fruit kernel Irvingia smithii (wild mango tree) from KISANTU botanical garden (DRC) by thermal effect at different temperatures (T1: sun drying, T2: roasting an oven 130° C for 30 minutes, T3: boiling 45 minutes) as a function time. It appears results our analyzes that kernels contain low proportions: phytate...

The current study evaluated the Phytochemicals Nutritional and Anti-nutritional Compositions of Fresh, Sprouted Toasted Citrullus lanatus (Watermelon) Seed extracts. phytochemicals, proximate, amino acids, microminerals antinutrients compositions were determined following standard laboratory procedures in autoanalizer machines. Data analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by LSD Duncan test for l...

Malnutrition is a real public health problem, particularly in low-income households. Therefore, the objective of this work to improve nutritional quality complementary foods based on maize and millet flours intended for children during diversification period Thus, biochemical phytochemical composition ten cereal-based formulations (maize millet) incorporated or not with Imbrasia oyemensis cater...

The objective of this study was to estimate the amount of bioavailable iron (FeBIO) in the diet of Mexican children aged 12-59 mo through the application of algorithms that use dietary variables and analyze the association between estimated FeBIO and hemoglobin (Hb) concentration. Data were analyzed for 919 children aged 12-59 mo old who participated in a national probabilistic survey on nutrit...

Tree nuts contain an array of phytochemicals including carotenoids, phenolic acids, phytosterols and polyphenolic compounds such as flavonoids, proanthocyanidins (PAC) and stilbenes, all of which are included in nutrient databases, as well as phytates, sphingolipids, alkylphenols and lignans, which are not. The phytochemical content of tree nuts can vary considerably by nut type, genotype, pre-...

Phytochemical studies were carried out on the plant parts of Jatropha curcas (L.) and Azadirachta indica (A. Juss) found in the South Eastern parts of Nigeria with a view to highlighting their pre-existing secondary metabolites which have varieties of biological activities attributed to them. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of seven secondary metabolites (alkaloids, tannins, saponins, fla...

The aim of this paper is to review recent literature regarding the determination of phosphorus species by ion chromatography (IC), and describe the implementation of new developments in sample treatment and ion chromatography methodology for the analysis of these compounds. Ion-exchange methods using both carbonate/hydrogencarbonate and hydroxide selective columns in combination with self-regen...

Objectives: The species of the genus Averrhoaare well known for their economic as well as medicinal importance. Nutritional and anti-nutritional characterization of the two available species, A.bilimbi L. and A.carambola L. (sweet and sour) were carried out in the present study. Methods: Fruit quality was assessed at two maturity stages using ten nutritional parameters, five antinutritional par...
