“…The high concentration of Fe in the foxtail millet grains may be ascribed to the high soil concentration of Fe at the field site (Table 3). Mg, Ca and Cu levels were found to be comparable to previous reports [7]. These metals were found to have concentrations of around 454, 470 and 5.8 mg/kg, respectively.…”

“…The levels of protein, measured as a proxy of N levels, found in this collection of foxtail millet accessions (5.63 to 13.38 g/100g) were comparable to levels found in other accessions of foxtail millet collected from Asian countries, including Bangladesh and India, where protein levels ranged from approx. 11.65 g/100g [7] to 12.3 g/100g [9; 10], respectively. These protein levels are higher than those reported in brown rice by the USDA (~2.7 g/100g; [49]).…”

Unknown to many, the Philippines is host to a few remaining accessions of the underutilized and understudied cereal foxtail millet (Setaria italica(L.) P. Beauv.). We collected together accessions from different eco-geographical locations within the Philippines, along with a few accessions from Lanyu, Taiwan, to undertake a study of the nutritional value and genetic diversity within accessions of foxtail millet grown in the Philippines. All accessions were field grown in 2022, dry season (DS) at the Institute of Plant Breeding (IPB) Experiment Station, Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines. The accessions were tested for micronutrients, including Zn and Fe, nitrogen as a proxy for protein, β-carotene and a number of phenolic compounds with known nutritional potential. Of the 20 accessions tested, the accessions Bayaras andGB61438had the highest level of Zn (107.1 mg/kg) and Fe (70.52 mg/kg), respectively, higher than levels found in traditional rice varieties. For β-carotene the highest concentration was found in the accession Balles (~10μg/g). Twelve phenolic compounds were detected, with catechin, syringic acid, ferulic acid and kaempferol having the highest concentrations and greatest variation between accessions. To assess the genetic diversity of these local foxtail millet accessions, we sequenced a core set of eight accessions to a depth of at least 25-fold. Analysis of the population structure, using genome-wide, high-quality SNPs, showed modest diversity among the accession, with two unadmixed groups. The accessions are monophyletic relative to their earliest common ancestor, with the very light brown accessions emerging earlier than the light brown and reddish-brown varieties. Analysis of Zinc/Iron permease (ZIP) transporters within the foxtail millet reference sequence, var. Yugu1 identified 17 putative ZIP transporters. Variant calling identified SNPs primarily within 3′ and 5′ regions, and introns, indicating variation between foxtail millet accessions within regulatory gene regions rather than in structural proteins. The local foxtail millet accessions found across the Philippines, therefore, represent a potential alternative source of nutrition that would help to address the problems of the double-burden of malnutrition found in the Philippines.

“…It was reported that an ethanol extract of barnyard millet grains contained one serotonin derivative, two flavonoids, and three antioxidative phenolic compounds. Furthermore, Abedin et al [31] reported that the methanolic extracts of FM also showed a higher total antioxidant capacity (170 ± 4 mg ascorbic acid equivalents (AAE)/100 g) and total phenolic content (52 ± 2 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/100 g). Additionally, kodo millet flour methanol extracts quenched 1,1,diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) by 70% compared to 15% to 53% in other millet extracts.…”

Health-Promoting Potential of Millet: A Review

et al. 2023

Being a key source of animal food, millet production has been sharply increasing over the last few years in order to cope with the dietary requirements of the ever-increasing world population. It is a splendid source of essential nutrients such as protein, carbohydrates, fat, minerals, vitamins, and also some other bioactive compounds that eventually help through multiple biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-hyperglycemic, anti-cholesterol, anti-hypertensive, anthropometric effects and regulation of gut microbiota composition. These bioactive compounds, nutrients, and functions of cereal grains can be affected by processing techniques such as decortication, soaking, malting, milling, fermentation, etc. This study discusses the nutritional and functional properties of millet-incorporated foods and their impact on health, based on around 150 articles between 2015 and 2022 from the Web of Science, Google Scholar, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Breeding Bid Survey (BBS), and FoodData Central (USDA) databases. Analyzing literature reviews, it is evident that the incorporation of millet and its constituents into foodstuffs could be useful against undernourishment and several other health diseases. Additionally, this review provides crucial information about the beneficial features of millet, which can serve as a benchmark of guidelines for industry, consumers, researchers, and nutritionists.

“…The highest polyphenol content was reported for Rosa canina [20]. In this sense, it is important to carry out a nutritional analysis which allows knowing information such as proximal composition (moisture, ashes, protein, fat and crude fiber) and mineral content, as well as functional analysis that allows us to determine antioxidant activity, compounds phenolics and vitamins [24].…”

Bioactive Compounds and Antioxidant Activity in the Fruit of Rosehip (Rosa canina L. and Rosa rubiginosa L.)

Rosehips (Rosa spp., Rosaceae) are wild rose bushes with more than 100 species. Its fruits vary in colour and size, depending on the species, and are recognised for their nutritional characteristics. Ten samples of Rosa canina L. and Rosa rubiginosa L. fruits were collected at different geographical points from Southern Chile. Nutrients such as crude protein and minerals and functional properties such as phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid, and also antioxidant activities were evaluated by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS. The results revealed a high content of bioactive compounds, primarily ascorbic acid (6.0 to 8.2 mg g−1 fresh weight (FW)), flavonols (427.9 ± 0.4 μg g−1 FW) and antioxidant activity. We established a relationship between the antioxidant activity using Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) and 2,2-diphenyl radical (DPPH) methods and the concentration of uncoloured compounds, such as flavonols and catechin. This antioxidant activity was primarily associated with the samples from Gorbea, Lonquimay, Loncoche, and Villarrica localities, and all of them were of the species Rosa rubiginosa L. The results here obtained represent novel information of rosehip fruits. In this sense, the reported information about compounds and antioxidant activities in rosehip fruits allowed us to continue new lines of research in relation to the potential formulation of new functional foods and also in the treatment and/or prevention of some diseases.
