RESUMETrois groupes de dix rats en croissance sont nourris durant 15 jours avec trois régimes alimentaires dont deux farines de sevrage du commerce qui sont l'Anagobaka 2,04% de protéines et le Cerelac Blé avec 14,94% de protéines. Un régime témoin constitué de farine de poisson fixé à 14,94% de protéines. Le dosage des paramètres plasmatiques et la biométrie des reins, coeurs, poumons, iléons et des foies sont effectués chez cinq rats de chaque lot en fin d'expérience. Les valeurs obtenues avec l'urée (0,18 ± 0,05 g/l), la glycémie (1,04 ± 0,32g/l), et la créatinine (0,47 ± 0,06g/l) chez les rats consommant l'Anagobaka sont inférieures à celles des rats soumis aux régimes Cerelac Blé (urée 0,22 ± 0,01 g/l; glycémie 2,94 ± 0,71 g/l; créatinine 0,72 ± 0,32 g/l) et témoin (urée 0,24 ± 0,02 g/l ; glycémie 2,91 ± 0,04 g/l; créatinine 0,72 ± 0,08g/l). La biométrie des organes a révélé chez les rats sous régime Anagobaka la diminution de 34,70% du poids de l'iléon et l'augmentation de 16,92% des reins, 21,20% du poids du foie et de 52,17% du poids du coeur en comparaison aux sujets témoins. Ces résultats pourraient présager une pathologie ou une perturbation du métabolisme nutritionnel de ces organes chez les rats soumis au régime Anagobaka. ABSTRACT Three groups of ten young rats are fed during 15 days with three diets among which two weaning meals namely Anagobaka 2,04% of proteins and wheat Cerelac 14,904% of proteins. The other is an experimental diet made of fish flour with 14,904% of proteins. At the end of the experiment, a dosage of biochemical plasma parameters and the biometry of kidneys, hearts, lungs, ileums and livers are realized on "all the rats". The results obtained with after urea (0,18 ± 0,05 g/l), blood glucose analysis (1,04 ± 0,32 g/l), and the creatinine (0,47 ± 0,06 g/l) on rats fed with Anagobaka are inferior to those of rats fed with Wheat Cerelac (urea 0,22 ± E. K.V. KOUAKOU et al. / Int. J. Biol. Chem. Sci. 10(1): 167-174, 2016 168 0,01 ; blood glucose analysis 2,94 ± 0,71 g/l ; creatinine 0,72 ± 0,32 g/l) and to those of the first experiment rats (urea 0,24 ± 0,02 g/l ; blood glucose analysis 2,91± 0,04 ; creatinine 0,72 ± 0,08 ), The dosage of biochemical plasma parameters could reveal some physiological pathologies and handicap. Yet, the organs biometry for rats submitted to Anagobaka diet has revealed the diminution of 34,70% from the weight of ileum, and the raise in weight of 16,92% of the kidneys, 21,20% in weight of liver and 52,17% in the in weight of heart compared to those of the first experiment rats. These results could foretell a pathology or a disturbance of the nutrition metabolism of these organs.
Tel (225) 66 52 92 38/ (225) 40 30 99 65 RESUME Deux groupes de dix rats en croissance sont nourris durant 15 jours, avec deux régimes alimentaires ne différant que par la qualité de leurs protéines animales. L'un contient 10% de farine de poisson (témoin) et l'autre, 10% de farine d'asticots séchés (FAS). Le dosage des paramètres biochimiques plasmatiques et la biométrie des reins et des foies sont effectués chez tous les rats en fin d'expérience. Aucune pathologie ni anomalie physiologique n'a été décelée à travers les paramètres biochimiques plasmatiques. Mais, la biométrie des organes révèle chez les rats sous régime FAS, une diminution de 6,60% du poids des reins et une augmentation de 10,60% du poids des foies, en comparaison aux sujets témoins. Ces résultats pourraient présager une pathologie ou une perturbation du métabolisme nutritionnel de ces organes.
The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the impact of Blighia sapida aril level in diet on the growth of albino Wistar rats and their welfare. A quantity of B. sapida arils was cooked and lyophilized. Thirty six young albinos Wistar rats teams up in six with six homogeneous groups were used for a four weeks research. Young rats group were fed ad libitum with six different diets which can be distinguished by the level of B. sapida arils powder. There were control diet (0% B. sapida arils powder), diet Bs 1 (6.25% B. sapida arils powder), diet Bs 2 (12.5% B. sapida arils powder), diet Bs 3 (25% B. sapida arils powder), diet Bs 4 (50% B. sapida arils powder) and diet Bs 5 (75% B. sapida arils powder). Body weight was measured weekly and the animals were observed for signs of abnormalities throughout the study. At the end of the experimentation, blood sample was collected and analyzed. Results show that the growth of rats fed with diets Bs 1 , Bs 2 and Bs 3 were normal as compared to the growth of rats fed with the control diet. On the other hand, growth retardation was noticed on rats fed with diets Bs 4 and Bs 5. However, rats coat fed with diets Bs 4 and Bs 5 were also normal. Again, for rats fed with diets Bs 4 and Bs 5 , a level (p<0.05) of total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol was noticed as compared to values obtained in rats of the other groups.In the case of natural disaster, the consumption of B. sapida aril could be used as nutritional base at a degree neighboring 50% of the nutritional need of the organism. Outside this value, growth retardation and a level of total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol can be noticed.
9040Biochemical and nutritional study of dried powder from caterpillars Imbrasia oyemensis eaten in west of Côte d'Ivoire ABSTRACT Objective: This study aims to evaluate the biochemical and nutritional composition of the flour of dried Imbrasia oyemensis caterpillar. Indeed, this Caterpillar was once prized by traditional societies But has been abandoned for other more popular animal proteins. Methods and Results: After chemical analysis by the standard methods (AOAC) in the laboratory, the composition of this insect was determined as 7.19 grams of water and 2.36 g of ash per 100g flour. The ash contains Potassium 61 mg/100g/dw, calcium 51.1 mg/100gdw, magnesium 20.8 mg/100gdw and phosphorus 51.4 mg/100gdw. The micro-nutrient content such as iron, zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum and selenium were respectively 702.14 mg/100gdw, 111.85 mg/100gdw, 48.09 mg/100gdw, 3879 mg/100gdw, 850 mg /100gdw and 309.8 mg/100gdw. The rates of total and reducing sugars were 0.55g and 0.08g/100gdw,. 23.10g. Fat contained as acid: 0.6% lauric, myristic 0.49%, 9.05% stearic, oleic 38.53%, 12.28% linoleic, linolenic 0.58%, gadoleic 0, 82%, palmitic and 1.01%. Furthermore, saturated and unsaturated acids amounted to 52.23% and 47.77% respectively of the total fatty acids. In addition, the saponification index, acid and iodine peroxide are successively 149.22; 51.07; 10.87 and 7.4. Oleic acid and unsaponifiables were 5.6% and 1.49%. This flour contained 55.49g/100gdw of proteins whom 9 essential : 6.85% leucine, isoleucine 5.58%, 8.98% lysine, threonine 7.99%, 6.11% valine, methionine + cysteine 0.418% tyrosine and phenylalanine + 8.83%. Non-essential amino acids : histidine 12%, tryptophan 2.08%, serine 6.12%, 7.99% glycine, 5.92% proline and alanine 7.04%. The energy value of 100 g of dry matter was estimated at 477 Kcal. This nutritional value is similar to that of meat and fish that are more costly for the poorest populations. Conclusion and application of the results: These caterpillars are thus a rich source of animal protein and food security can guarantee the proper human protein-energy balance.
One of critical public health concerns in many developing countries today is water quality and the risks associated with waterborne diseases. Many research works that have studied about factors contributing to water pollution have not considered the perception on drinking water quality and health risk in the rural area of the department of Tiassalé. This study therefore focuses on evaluating the level of perception of households living in the rural area of Tiassalé. The study data were collected through interviews from a total of 600 respondents with structured questionnaire. The majority of the respondents (78.2%) used water from hand dug wells for drinking purpose. According to 77.7 % of respondents, water from the wells was safe for drinking. Around 9.3% had a degree of knowledge about the sources of well water contamination. Majority of the respondents (87.3 %) did not treat their water. About 80% of residents mentioned that they had not experienced any negative effects from drinking the well water. Variables associated with perception of drinking water quality included educational status, use of at least one method
