“…Fat was the highest biochemical composition (30.32%) followed by oil (23.04%), carbohydrate (12.84%), and protein (12.84%). Kavitha et al (2015) reported the similar result that java olive seeds were rich in fat (30-36%) and protein 11.4%. Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI, 2010) also reported that the main compositions of java olive seeds are fats and protein which are 51.78% and 21.61% respectively.…”

Sudrajat DJ, Suwandhi I, Siregar IZ, Siregar UJ. 2018. Variation in seed morpho-physiological and biochemical traits of Java olive populations originated from Java, Bali, Lombok, and Timor Islands, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 1004-1012. Java olive (Sterculia foetida L.) is one of the promising non-edible feedstocks for biodiesel production. Utilization of this tree species for plantation is limited due to knowledge gaps in many fundamental aspects of seed properties. The aim of the study was to determine the variation that may exist among java olive seed collected from Bogor, Palimanan, Tuban, Gilimanuk, Pemenang and Naioni populations, and to analyze correlations between one or many seed morpho-physiological and biochemical traits. Analysis of variance showed significant differences of seed morphological and biochemical traits, except for the germination capacity. Seed morphological traits were not significantly correlated with agro-climate factors, while some of biochemical traits revealed significant correlation with some agroclimate factors. Genotypic variance and genotypic coefficient of variation were higher for fruit length, fruit width, carbohydrate, fat, protein and oil contents, indicating higher genetic contribution on the variance of these traits. High heritability values combined with high genetic gain was found for protein content, fruit width and oil content, that revealed the characters having highly genetic origin with a good number of heritable components. Population clustering exhibited that most of the geographically distant population are genetically related. Pemenang population was found highly associated with oil content, indicating that the population have high potency to develop as the feedstocks for for biodiesel production.

“…The S . foetida tree yields edible seeds, which contain 30–36% fat and 11.4% protein, and its bark and leaves can be utilized for aperient, diuretic, and diaphoretic purposes and have also been used to treat obesity, rheumatism, gonorrhea, dropsy, and skin disease [ 11 ]. This plant also contains a wide range of bioactive components that have been isolated previously, including acetamiprid, α -BHC, tetradecanoic acid, methyl ester, terbufos, benfuresate, dichlofluanid, DEP (trichlorfon), 1-azuleneethanol, acetate, captan, etridiazole, diethofencarb, etobenzanid, cyfluthrin, cypermethrin, pendimethalin, kresoxim-methyl, tetraconazole, and pyributicarb [ 12 ].…”

The edible herb Sterculia foetida L. has potential nutraceutical and medicinal effects. The present study is performed to assess the possible antidiabetic, neuropharmacological, and antidiarrheal activity of the methanolic extract of S. foetida seeds (MESF) through in vitro, in vivo, and in silico approaches. When compared to standard acarbose, the results of the antidiabetic study provided strong proof that the glucose level in the MESF was gradually decreased by inhibiting the function of α-amylase enzymes. The sedative potential of MESF (200 and 400 mg/kg) was determined by employing open field, hole cross, and thiopental sodium-induced sleeping time tests, which revealed significant reductions in locomotor performance and increased sleep duration following MESF treatment. In addition, mice treated with MESF exhibited superior exploration during elevated plus maze and hole board tests. MESF also showed good antidiarrheal activity in castor oil-induced diarrhea and intestinal motility tests. Previously isolated compounds (captan, 1-azuleneethanol, acetate, and tetraconazole) exhibited good binding affinity in docking studies and drug-likeliness properties in absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion/toxicity (ADME/T), and toxicological studies. Collectively, these results indicate the bioactivity of S. foetida, which represents a potential candidate in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

A method for purifying the polysaccharides from Sterculia foetida L. gum was developed. The effects of purifying conditions were also studied. Results have shown that the conditions of pH 0.5, temperature of 80°C, and 2.5-h reaction duration gave the best polysaccharides yield. The mineral content and the molecular weight of the obtained polysaccharides were measured for characterization. The cross-linking of the polysaccharides with citric acid in order to achieve a desired polymer was performed successfully. The obtained polymers under different conditions were evaluated for the potential application as a hemostatic agent, including tests of swelling behavior in different fluids, whole-blood clotting time and enzymatic bio-degradation. Results have shown that the citric acid/polysaccharides ratio of 0.01 produced a comparative yield of polymer flakes with increased swelling properties, as well as shortened in vitro blood clotting time and gradual biodegradability in three experimental days. Therefore, the citric acid/polysaccharides ratio of 0.01 was selected for the subsequent experiment to obtain the polymer after 1.5 h of purification, which gave the best swelling properties, 20 times the initial weight, reduced the whole-blood clotting time by 50% and showed a rapid bio-degradation. The results obtained from this study provide essential knowledge on the research of the use of S. foetida gum polysaccharides as a passive hemostatic agent, thereby extending the potential pharmaceutical applications of natural polysaccharides in Vietnam.
