Determination of Fatty Acid Composition of Roasted African Palm Weevil Larvae (Rhycophorous phoenicis)
Abstract: AbstractThe study was demonstrated to evaluate the fatty acid composition of roasted African palm weevil larvae, and the degree of saturation. The result obtained shows that unsaturated fatty acid is dominant with the value of mono to polyunsaturated fatty acid rage between 20.17 and 58.37% respectively. However, the total saturated fatty acid evaluated was 20.83%. The study concludes that roasted African palm weevil larvae is a potential source of unsaturated …

Methods for Removal of Rotenone from Brebra (Millettia ferruginea) Seed, Oil and Defatted Flour under Different Treatment Conditions
Abstract: The main objective was to develop and determine the rotenone removal methods from different samples of defatted flour and refined oil. To remove rotenone, ethanol, pH gradient treatment, cooking and roasting were used and rotenone was determined by HPLC analysis. Most of the rotenone (0.701%) from non-defatted flour is lost during defatting (0.37%) and refinery process of oil (0.02%). From raw seed, 84.1, 85.1 and 97.3% rotenone was removed by …

Effect of Processing On Bioavailability of Macronutrients and Minerals in Complementary Food Formulated From Cereals and Supplemented With Legumes
Abstract: Low bioavailability of protein and minerals in plant-based foods has contributed to malnutrition challenge confronting young humans in developing settings. Therefore, roasting, germination, fermentation and boiling were investigated as possible household processing methods that could improve bioavailability of a cereal-based complementary food supplemented with soy bean and groundnut. Standard methods were adopted in evaluating the bioavailability of these nutrients in male weaning albino rat model. The results obtained showed that …
