Triterpenoid saponins from the seeds of amaranthus cruentus
Phytochemistry, 1998Abstract Four new saponins, 3-β-O-[α- l -rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 3)-β-glucuronopyranosyl]-2β,3β-dihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid 28-O-[β- d -glucopyranosyl] ester, 3-β-O-[α- l -rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 3)-β-glucuronopyranosyl]-2β,3β,23-trihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid 28-O-[β- d -glucopyranosyl] ester, 3-β-O-[α-rhamnopyranosyl(1 → 3)-β-glucuronopyranosyl]-2β,

Determination and Toxicity of Saponins from Amaranthus cruentus Seeds
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 1999The concentrations of four triterpene saponins present in amaranth seeds were determined with high-performance liquid chromatography. It was shown that the total concentration of saponins in seeds was 0. 09-0.1% of dry matter. In germinating seeds an increase in concentration to 0.18% was observed after 4 days of germination, which remained stable for ...

Enhancing nutritional quality of Amaranthus cruentus (L.) with fertilisers and salicylic acid
World Journal of Advanced Research and ReviewsGlobally, deficiency of essential vitamins and minerals in major staple food crops is a great challenge to human health. The use of fertilisers and elicitors has been suggested as a sustainable approach to enhance food quality.

Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management
Although green leafy vegetables are a great source of micronutrients, they can also often include harmful heavy metals and pesticides. Hence, the objective of this paper was to assess the levels of heavy metals and pesticide residues in Abelmoschus ...

A trypsin inhibitor from amaranth (Amaranthus cruentus) leaves
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology, 2000A protein that inhibited the proteolytic activity of trypsin was isolated from amaranth leaves (Amaranthus cruentus) by affinity chromatography on trypsin-Sepharose. The inhibition was noncompetitive (withp-nitroanilide-N-α-benzoyl-DL-arginine as substrate) and had aK i, of 1.87 × 10−7 M.

Physicochemical Characterization of Starches from Amaranthus Cruentus Grains
Starch - Stärke, 1998The physicochemical properties of starches isolated from three cultivars (Mexican, African and A200D) of Amaranth cruentus grains were studied. The yield of starch was in the range 29–38.3% on a whole grain basis. The starch granules were polygonal with smooth surfaces. The granule size was in the range 0.75–1.5 μm for all three cultivars.

Characterization ofAmaranthus cruentus andChenopodium quinoa Starch
Starch - Stärke, 1999Starches from amaranth (Amaranthus cruentus) and quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) were isolated and investigated by using enzymatic assay, Rapid Visco Analysis (RVA), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Diffractometry (XRD).

PHYTO-REMEDIATION OF LEAD-CONTAMINATED SOIL USING AMARANTHUS CRUENTUS
2005Previous studies have shown that some vegetables have the ability to absorb metals from soil. Since they are early maturity species, they possess the potential to be used as phytoremediating agents. Also, synthetic chelates have been found to induce lead desorption from soil matrix, thereby enhancing uptake into plant tissues.
