“…This effectiveness may be because of a combination of fatty acids (85% unsaturated fatty acids), volatile oils and trace elements (Cheikh et al, 2007). Abbas et al (2012) found that the fatty acid patterns of nigella sativa seed oil were qualitatively similar to those of other plants; the essential fatty acid linoleic (52.6%) being the major fatty acid, followed by oleic acid (23.5%). Linolenic acid was detected in small quantities in samples.…”

This study was conducted to study the effect of nigella seed oil as an alternative to the antibiotic, avilamycin, on growth, digestibility, muscle fatty acid profile and some physiological parameters in broiler chickens. Fifty four chicks at 15 d of age (average weight, 320 ± 3 g) were divided into a control group and two treatment groups (n = 18). The control group was fed a basal diet and the experimental treatment groups were fed the basal diet supplemented with avilamycin at a level of 0.001% or nigella seed oil at 1 mL/kg. Growth performance and breast muscle fatty acid profile were measured. Although feed intake was not affected, bodyweight gain was increased, and thus feed conversion ratio was improved by feeding nigella seed oil compared with the control and avilamycin groups. Plasma total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations were higher, while, plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) acid level was lower and polyunsaturated fatty acid levels were higher in the muscle fat of birds receiving nigella seed oil than those receiving the other treatments. It is concluded that feeding nigella seed oil as alternative to avilamycin antibiotic improved growth performance, modified the fatty acids profile in muscles and enhances plasma total cholesterol, LDL and HDL concentrations, and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity.

“…Elmnan, Balgees, and Mangara () reported that fenugreek seed contained 28.60% protein, 14.04% crude fiber, 6.16% ether extract, and 4.65% ash. Abbas Ali et al () reported that T. foenum‐graecum seed contained 28% protein. It was shown partly differences between results to literature values as stated above.…”

Oil contents of samples were found low, and varied between 5.06 and 6.33%. In addition, crude fiber contents of seeds changed between 9.25 and 10.35%. Sugar compositions of fenugreek seeds changed according to locations. While fructose contents of seeds change between 1.62 and 3.06%, stachyose contents of samples ranged from 1.29 to 2.12%. While aspartic acid contents of fenugreek change between 2.65 and 3.31%, glutamic acid contents of samples were found between 3.79 and 4.82%. While linoleic acid contents of fenugreek seed oils change between 35.14 and 41.04%, linolenic acid contents of oils varied from 16.97 to 25.66%. Oleic acid contents of seed oils ranged from 11.8 to 19.93% (p < .05). Practical applications Fenugreek seeds are rich in crude protein, sugars, amino acids, and fatty acid contents. The fatty acid profile was dominated by oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acids. Fenugreek has a great medicinal value, and its seed has some medicinal properties such as hypoglycemic, laxative, stimulant, carminative, stomachic, antibacterial, antioxidant, and diuretic. However, fenugreek shows high quantities of linolenic acid (16.99–25.66%) and gets into the drying oil category. Drying oil is any of several natural oils, which oxidize to form a tough, elastic film when exposed to the air.

“…Habbatussauda atau jintan hitam (Nigella sativa L.) adalah tanaman aromatik semusim, merupakan tanaman obat potensial dan telah digunakan di banyak negara termasuk India, negara-negara Arab, dan Eropa tidak hanya sebagai bumbu dan perasa, tetapi juga sebagai bahan obat (Hamid, 2012). Bijinya merupakan sumber natrium, kalsium, kalium, dan zat-zat lain yang berperan dalam kesehatan (Abas-Ali et al, 2012). Tanaman ini dibudidayakan di wilayah mediteranean dan berkembang di berbagai wilayah termasuk India dan Pakistan (Abdolrahimi et al, 2012).…”

ABSTRACTBlack cumin is an annual medicinal aromatic plant, cultivated mainly in mediteranean regions with low temperature (under 20 °C). The suitable planting area in the tropic for black cumin need to be studied. The aim of this study was to study the growth and production of black cumin in three altitudes of Indonesia tropical region. The experiment was conducted from June to October 2015 at Bogor Agricultural University experimental station in Leuwikopo, Dramaga (06o56’S, 106o73’E, 220 masl); Sukamantri, Ciapus (06o61’S, 106o78’E, 560 masl); and Sari Alam Medicinal Plant Garden in Ciwidey, Bandung (07o09’S, 107o50’E, 1,280 masl as control). This experiment used a nested design with two factors, i.e. altitudes (220, 560, 1,280 masl) and accesions (India, Kuwait). The variable studied were plant height, leaf area, leaf area index, leaf thickness, capsules per plant, seed per capsule, weight of 1,000 seeds, seeds per plant, and weight of seed per plant. Data was analyzed with compare means difference between low, middle altitude and high altitude as a control (1,280 masl) with t-student test. The result showed black cumin India and Kuwait accessions can be cultivated at low and middle altitude Indonesia tropical region. Plant height of India and Kuwait accession decrease 37.1 and 46.6% at 560 masl; 21.1 and 24.4% at 220 masl respectively, and yield decrease 26.9 and 59.4% at 560 masl and 44.5 and 63.9% at 220 masl, respectively. Keywords: black cumin, elevation variation, growth and production character
