Mexican lime peel: Comparative study on contents of dietary fibre and associated antioxidant activity

Physicochemical characterization of five types of citrus dietary fibers

“…Persian (11.3470.34 mL/g db) (Ubando-Rivera et al, 2005). The SC of IDFs was found to be relatively high as compared to that of other available dietary fibers from different citrus fruit sources (Lundberg et al, 2014).…”

Chemical characterization of the pulp, peel and seeds of cocona (Solanum sessiliflorum Dunal)

“…Similarly, cocona peel and seeds (50.15 and 68.12%, respectively) have significant dietary fibre when compared with passion fruit seeds (64.8%) (CHAU; HUANG, 2004), mango pulp (44.7%) (AJILA et al, 2007) and Persian lime peel (66.7%) (UBANDO-RIVERA et al, 2005). This similarity shows that cocona fruit, including its agroindustrialization residues, can be an important supplement to the human diet, providing significant amounts of dietary fibre, which is of great interest from a nutritional standpoint.…”

Chemical composition, antioxidant activity and bioactive compounds of vegetation species ingested by goats on semiarid rangelands

“…The concentration was calculated using gallic acid as the standard, and the results were expressed as mg of gallic acid equivalents (GAE) per 1 kg dry matter of plant extract. To determine flavonoids and hydroxycinnamic acid, 20 mg of each dry extract were assessed by HPLC according to Ubando-Rivera et al (2005). An HPLC 1525 high-pressure binary pump (Waters Milford, USA) and Symmetry C18 column (5 µm steel 3.9 mm × 150 mm; Waters Milford, USA) were employed.…”
