Rotation Benefits From N2-Fixing Grain Legumes to Cereals: From Increases in Seed Yield and Quality to Greater Household Cash-Income by a Following Maize Crop

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2020
We investigated Bambara groundnut, groundnut, mung bean, cowpea, and black gram for use as biofertilizers in cropping systems. The 15N natural abundance technique was used to measure N2 fixation in this study.

Exergy‐Based Simulation and Optimization of Multiagent MSW Gasification for Sustainable Energy Recovery Using Aspen Plus

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermochemical gasification is one of the most efficient methods for producing solid waste synthesis gas. Therefore, to predict and analyze the process of gasification of municipal solid waste (MSW) in a downdraft fixed‐bed gasification reactor with a thermal capacity of 2.1 kW, a comprehensive numerical modeling approach based on Gibbs free ...

Functional Bread From Bambara Groundnut and Orange Peel Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in a High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Rat Model

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study evaluated Bambara groundnut–wheat composite bread fortified with orange peel in diabetic rats. Diets significantly lowered blood glucose, inhibited α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase, and boosted antioxidant enzymes compared to controls. Results emphasize BG‐based functional foods' potential to help manage type 2 diabetes through regulation of ...

“Effects of High‐Intensity Ultrasound on the Structural, Technofunctional, and Allergenic Properties of Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) Protein Isolates: A Review”

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing global demand for sustainable, nutritionally balanced protein sources has intensified interest in plant‐derived proteins, particularly those derived from oilseeds such as groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.). However, although groundnut protein isolates (GPIs) have high nutritional quality, they exhibit limitations in technofunctional ...

Bajra‐based functional laddu—Standardization, nutritional profiling, molecular characterization

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The bajra laddu experimental formulations consisted of composite flour containing varying proportions of bajra flour and gram flours viz, T0‐0:100, T1‐25:75, T2‐50:50, T3‐75:25, and T4‐100:0, respectively. The sensory acceptability of the standardized product was assessed by semitrained panelists using a nine‐point hedonic scale, which ...

Comparative physico-chemical, proximate and mineral analysis on raw and roasted seeds of groundnut [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications in Plant Sciences, 2013
Physico-chemical, proximate and nutritionally valuable minerals were determined aiming to compare raw and roasted groundnut seeds. The results indicated that total ash content of raw groundnut (4.6%) was higher than the roasted groundnut (4.1%) seeds ...

Extending Soya Bean and Cottonseed Oils Shelf‐Lifes by Blending Them With Palm Kernel Oil During Frying of Potato Chips

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Blending soya bean and cottonseed oils with palm kernel oil at ratios 50:50, 40:60, and 30:70 significantly increase their oxidative stability during frying of potato chips compared to soya bean oil and cottonseed oil alone. ABSTRACT Unsaturated oils have limited applications due to their instability. The industry uses hydrogenation and antioxidants to
