Foxtail millet (Setaria italica) is an important crop species with vast genetic resources highly valued for its nutritional profile and adaptability to harsh environments. This study investigated the nutritional composition and antioxidant properties of indigenous foxtail millet genotypes grown in the Shamator district...
Aerial parts of native perennials Satureja montana and Teucrium montanum were spectrophotometrically compared on the levels of antioxidant potential, phenolics, soluble sugars and proteins, suggesting a greater potential for phenolic-associated bioactivity.
ABSTRACT Guar ( Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) is a valuable and multifunctional summer legume crop that is widely exploited for seed gum extraction due to the presence of galactomannan in the seed endosperm, as well as for its protein‐rich by‐products (germ and hull), which are extensively used in various industries. The...
Parkia biglobosa (Jacq.) R.Br. ex G.Don (African locust bean; Hausa: ‘Dorawa’) is a multipurpose leguminous tree of the family Fabaceae whose fermented seed condiment — locally known as ‘dawadawa’ or ‘iru’ — is a culturally significant protein- and flavour-rich food ingredient across West and Central Africa. The pre...
Rosa canina L. (rose hip) is an underutilized wild fruit with high potential as a natural ingredient for functional foods and nutraceuticals. This study evaluated the proximate composition, mineral content, and bioactive compounds in whole fruit powders from eight Iranian R. canina populations, aiming to identify suita...
Five oat cultivars – Kent, OS-6, PLP-1, OL-125 and OL-9 were evaluated for their nutritional composition and further investigated how incorporating the most nutrient-rich cultivar into cookies influenced their nutritional quality. The study was conducted to provide comparative data on the nutritional variability among...
