Nutritional evaluation of dried tomato seeds

Abstract: Two samples of tomato seeds, a by-product of the tomato canning industry were evaluated to determine proximate analysis, amino acid content, and digestibility, TMEn, and protein efficiency ratio. Tomato seeds were also used to replace corn and soybean meal (SBM) in a chick diet on an equal true amino acid digestibility and TMEn basis. Tomato seeds were found to contain 8.5% moisture, 25% CP, 20.0% fat, 3.1% ash, 35.1% total dietary fiber, 0.12% Ca, 0.58% P, and 3,204 kcal/kg of TMEn. The total amounts of methi… Show more

“…For tomato waste, the digestibility and energy values described for non-cecectomized and cecectomized roosters are 2,954 and 3,204 kcal/kg, respectively (Persia et al, 2003). Silva et al (2009) reported AME values of 2,132 kcal/kg and AMEn values of 2,030 kcal/kg for free-range broilers.…”

“…Processing of tomatoes led to a high amount of by-products consists mainly of skin and seeds (Del Valle et al, 2006) are promising sources of valuable compounds which may be used because their nutritional and medicinal properties. Tomato seeds account approximately 60% of the total byproduct and contained appreciable amounts of protein (22.27-33.9%), fat (20.57-29.6%) (Sogi et al, 1998), fiber (35.1%), mineral elements such as potassium, calcium, iron, manganese, zinc and copper (Persia et al, 2003) and significant proportion of the antioxidants in the form of carotens and phenolic compounds (Knoblich et al, 2005). Shao (2013) reported that the tomato seed oil had total unsaturated fatty acid content up to 80.10% from which the major fatty acid beeing linoleic (53.70%), followed by oleic (23.80%) and linolenic acids (2.1%).…”

“…Quality evaluation of tomato seed protein revealed that the nutritive value of tomato seed protein was less than that of casein but equivalent to other plant proteins (Kramer and Kwee, 1977). Substantial amounts of digestible amino acids, especially lysine (Brodowski and Geisman, 1980;Cantarelli et al, 1989;Persia et al, 2003) were found, suggesting that tomato seed can be used in fortifying various low-lysine products that are deficient in this amino acid like wheat flour (Yaseen et al, 1991). No anti-nutritional factor or harmful constituent have been reported in tomato seeds (Rahma et al, 1986).…”

“…In this aspect, working with broiler chickens from 8 to 21 days of age, Persia et al (2003) used residues from tomato in the levels of 0%; 5%; 10%; 15% and 20% in relation to corn and soy meal and observed that the performance of the fowls had no negative effect in gain of weight and in feed efficiency up to level of 15%.…”
