The present study was undertaken to evaluate and compare the potential of antioxidant activities of olive leaf extracts(OLEs) with other natural or synthetic antioxidants. So, the aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of methanolic-,ethanolic-,and water-olive leave extracts (OLEs) and compare it with other antioxidants such as green tea extract , tert-butylhydroxyquinone (TBHQ) , citric acid on the oxidative stability of virgin canola oil during storage at an oven at 63±1°C temperature for 0,5,10,15,20 days. To follow the relative of oxidative deterioration of canola oil , oils were analyzed periodically for their peroxide value (PV) , iodine value (IV) , acid value (AV) and Thiobarbituric acid (T.B.A.). Analysis of heated canola oils demonstrated significant increases in PV and AV and T.B.A. However , IV of the oils were markedly decreased. Results also showed that olive leaf extracts (i.e.,methanolic-,ethanolic-,and water-olive leave extracts) secured protective effect against oxidation of canola oil and can serve as substitutes for synthetic antioxidants .

“…Various parts of Bambara groundnut are used for human consumption. Fresh seeds in pods may be boiled and eaten as a snack in a manner similar to boiled peanut, while dry seeds can be made into pudding (or steamed-paste) called Moi-Moi or Okpa (bean porridge) in some parts of Nigeria (Okpuzor et al, 2009), hence has the potential to enhance nutritional security for humans.…”

Forty nine (49) Bambara groundnut genotypes derived from single plant selection of diverse origin were evaluated for yield and yield components using 26 yield and yield related traits. Highly significant (P<0.001) differences were detected among the genotypes for canopy spread, petiole length, weight of biomass, seed weight and seed height, while seedling emergence, pod weight, seed length and seed width were significantly different (P<0.05). Principal component analysis identified nine influential components whereby PC 1 and PC 2 highly contributed to the total variation at 19% and 14%, respectively. Leaf colour at emergence, petiole colour, leaf joint pigmentation and calyx colour were highly correlated with PC 1 , while seed length, seed width and seed height had strong association with PC 2 . Both the principal component and cluster analyses displayed common association among most of the genotypes for agronomic and seed yield traits. Genotypes that showed high seed yield performance and greater biomass production can be tested for large-scale production, breeding or germplasm conservation.
