Optimisation of Nutritional and Anti-Nutritional Properties of Composite Flour Made from Eleusine coracana (Finger Millet) and Manihot esculenta (Cassava)

Robert Mweteise,Christopher Adaku,Hannington Gumisiriza
In this study, composite flour was formulated by blending Eleusine coracana (finger millet) and Manihot esculenta (cassava) to achieve optimal nutritional content tailored to different age groups. Various composites of roasted and unroasted finger millet and cassava flour were mingled into bread and analysed for nutritional and anti-nutritional values using AOAC International’s Official Methods of Analysis. The composite (millet flour/cassava flour, 3:1; w/w) had the optimal co...

Synthetic Analysis of the Methanol-Raphia-Sese Oil Interface with a View to Obtaining Biodiesel under Chemcad Software
—Case of Acid or Base Transesterification

Biabongo N. Pamphile,Emmanuel Neva Okwes,Gedeon Ekulu
In this paper, the biodiesel starting from raphia-sese oil in the presence of a methanol was obtained. On this, a model of the explanatory circuit was established on basis of which the assessment matter takes shape according to the quantity and intrinsic properties of products. The results obtained with this model were validated and, one thus could confirm the properties of the product under interfaces: temperature-density, temperature-viscosity, temperature-pressure, mass temperature-heat and t...

A Detailed Review on Analytical Methods to Manage the Impurities in Drug Substances

Dharmpal Singh, Rekha Isharani
Impurities, particularly those associated with the API (active pharmaceutical ingredient) and causing deterioration or interaction, may lower a drug’s quality, safety, and efficacy. The successful reduction and control of impurities in pharmaceuticals rely on safety-based impurity limits. Many methods have been developed to define a practically safe dosage of impurities, with an emphasis on daily exposure limitations. They include permissible daily exposure (PDE), acceptable intake (AI), the thr...

Effect of Lignocellulose Waste-Biomass Pretreatment of the Peels of Musa acuminata (Banana) and Ananas comosus (Pineapple) on the Production of Bioethanol via Solid-State Fermentation

Nyinchuo Evate, Pride Ndasi Ngwasiri, Wilson Agwanande Ambindei, Ngwa Martin Ngwabie, Martin Benoit Ngassoum
The use of fruits both domestically and industrially generates waste from their discarded peels which may lead to environmental pollution and contamination. This work aims at evaluating the effects of chemical pre-treatment of biomass on the physicochemical properties and the effects of process parameters on the production of ethanol via solid-state fermentation. The biomass was dried, ground and subjected to chemical pretreatment using H2SO4 and NaOH. pH, total Titratable ...

An Alternative and Fast Method of Nitrite Determination in Meat Sausages Using the PhotoMetrix® Smartphone Applicative for Digitized Image Processing

Gleisson A. Almeida, Antonio J. Demuner, Daiane E. Blank, Cristiane I. Cerceau, Bianca L. Sousa, Iara F. Demuner, Marcela R. Coura, Maria J. M. Firmino, Marcelo H. Santos
Due to the potential threats of nitrite to public health and safety, in this work, we proposed, for the first time, the application of PhotoMetrix® software for the detection of nitrite in meat products. Nitrite monitoring in food matrices has been carried out by expensive analytical methods. Aiming mainly speed and cost reduction, colorimetric analysis software has been developed using digital imaging. Among them, the PhotoMetrix®, a free software based on template...

Quantification of Aloin in Aloe barbadensis Miller Leaf Gel and Latex from Selected Regions of Kenya

Caroline K. Nakiguli, Viola J. Kosgei, Jackson K. Cherutoi, John Odda
Aloe barbadensis Miller (A. barbadensis) has been reported for use in the traditional management of malaria in Kenya. Aloin (an anthraquinone-C-gly-coside) is one of the therapeutic molecules in Aloe species that is responsible for their antimalarial effect. However, there is no report on the aloin content of A. barbadensis leaves latex and gel from Kenya. This study, therefore, isolated and quantified aloin levels in Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) extracts of A. ...

Nnenna Eberechi Ofoegbu-Chibuzo, Uche John Chukwu, Ifedi Peter Okoye
Physicochemical analysis and fatty acid content of chemical and traditional extracted shea kernel (Vitellaria paradoxa) from Kwara State Nigeria have been studied. The extraction of shea butter from shea kernel using chemical and traditional techniques as well as its physicochemical analysis reveals that both the chemical extracted shea butter (CSB) and the traditional extracted shea butter (TSB) are very similar in properties save for the odor (slightly choking nutty odor for CSB and sli...
