Incubation Conditions for Fenugreek Whole Seed

Planta Medica, 1985
For high yields of monohydroxysapogenins from TRIGONELLA FOENUMGRAECUM Linn. (Fenugreek) seed, the conditions of incubation, prior to acid hydrolysis, were studied. Using these conditions: temp. 45° C, initial pH 4.0, with aeration and shaking for 4 days, a 90% increase over the control (acid hydrolysis alone) was achieved.

Hypocholesterolemic effect of germinated fenugreek seeds in human subjects

Plant Foods for Human Nutrition, 1999
The effect of consumption of germinated fenugreek seed powder at two different levels, i.e., 12.5 g and 18.0 g on the blood lipid profiles of twenty hypocholesterolemic adults of both sexes in the age range of 50-65 years was studied. The subjects were divided into two groups, i.e., Group I and Group II who were asked to incorporate the powder into any

New kaurene diterpenoid glycosides from fenugreek seeds

Natural Product Research, 2013
Two new kaurene diterpenoid glycosides, named Graecumoside A (1) and B (2), were isolated from fenugreek seeds, along with three known flavonoid-C-glycosides, isoorientin (3), isovitexin (4) and vitexin (5). By combined analyses of 1D- and 2D-NMR, and MS spectroscopy, the structures of two new compounds were elucidated as 3-O-β- D-glucopyranosyl kaur-5,

Effects of Fenugreek Seeds on Endocrine Pancreatic Secretions in Dogs

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 1984
The components of fenugreek seeds were separated and analyzed to determine which fraction of the seed had hypoglycemic activity. These fractions were administered orally to normal or diabetic dogs for 8 days. The effect on blood glucose and pancreatic hormones was studied in normal dogs.

Characterisation of volatile compounds in Tunisian fenugreek seeds

Food Chemistry, 2009
Abstract In this study, we intend to develop a simple and fast analytical procedure to identify the volatile compounds implicated in the odour of Tunisian fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graceum L.) seeds. Two procedures, solvent extraction and static headspace solid-phase microextraction (SHS-SPME), have been used under different conditions.

Antidiabetic Activities of Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) Seeds

2011
Publisher Summary This chapter highlights the anti-diabetic functions of fenugreek seeds. Various constituents of fenugreek seed are responsible for hypoglycemic activity, one of them being fenugreek galactomannan. Fenugreek galactomannan is one of the constituents of fenugreek seed, and shows promising antidiabetic properties.

Molecular spectroscopic study of acid treated fenugreek seeds

Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy, 2010
Fenugreek seeds were subjected to acid treatment in order to activate its surface. XRF indicated that there was no change in the level of metals and metal oxides as a result of the treatment. FTIR of the treated fenugreek showed no change in the characteristic bands and/or structure of the fenugreek.
