“…Mianyang cultivar had the lowest cultivar (164.70 ± 2.27 mg KOH/g). The saponification value of IPPO was comparable to that of torreya seed oil (181.04–195.74 mg KOH/g) [ 35 ], soybean oil (179.45 mg KOH/g) [ 36 ], and palm oil (120.62 ± 1.40–247.76 ± 2.14 mg KOH/g) [ 37 ]. It indicated that triacylglycerol in IPPO contained relatively more short-chain fatty acids [ 35 ].…”

Idesia polycarpa pulp oil (IPPO) has the potential to become the new high-quality vegetable oil. The chemical parameters, fatty acid composition, bioactive ingredients, and antioxidant capacity of five Chinese regions of IPPO were studied comparatively, with significant differences among the regions. The oils were all abundant in unsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid (63.07 ± 0.03%–70.69 ± 0.02%), oleic acid (5.20 ± 0.01%–7.49 ± 0.03%), palmitoleic acid (4.31 ± 0.01%–8.19 ± 0.01%) and linolenic acid (0.84 ± 0.03%–1.34 ± 0.01%). IPPO is also rich in active substances such as tocopherols (595.05 ± 11.81–1490.20 ± 20.84 mg/kg), which are made up of α, β, γ and δ isomers, β-sitosterol (1539.83 ± 52.41–2498.17 ± 26.05 mg/kg) and polyphenols (106.77 ± 0.86–266.50 ± 2.04 mg GAE/kg oil). The free radical scavenging capacity of IPPO varies significantly depending on the region. This study may provide important guidance for the selection of Idesia polycarpa and offer insights into the industrial application of IPPO in China.

Moringa oleifera is an important medicinal plant in several countries, e.g. Nigeria, USA, Turkey, Germany, Greece, and Ukraine. The abundant bioactive and nutritional properties of this plant make it useful in many and diverse areas of life including the health, cosmetic, agricultural and food industries to mention but a few. Research has found out that the presence of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins, minerals, flavonoids, phenols, alkaloids, fatty acids, saponins, essential oils, folate, aromatic hydrocarbons, sterols, glucosinolates, glycosides among others characterise the Moringa‐ nutrient profile and as a result, give rise to its remedial effects on ailments such like wounds, stomach and duodenal ulcers, allergies, obesity, diabetics, inflammation, asthma, etcetera. It is the aim of this review to provide an insight into such medicinal and pharmacological remedies attributed to Moringa stating both the past and recent discoveries. This review article also takes a look into the botanical features, bioactive compounds, antinutrients, food applications, bacterial fermentation products, biosafety, industrial applications and other uses of Moringa. Finally, with belief that knowledge is progressive, we acknowledge that there are things yet undiscovered about this wonder plant that will be of value both to medicine and general life, we therefore recommend that research work continue on the plant Moringa.This article is protected by copyright.

Plants are important to life, beyond nutritional role there are other functions that plant plays in helping humans and animals survive in their environment. This study focused on identifying the phytochemicals, bioactive compounds present in bitter kola leave, their in-vitro antioxidant activities and compared with n-hexane, ethanol and aqueous solvent to identify effective solvent for extraction of these phytochemicals in relation to food, health and nutritional benefits. The FTIR and GC-MS assessment of the extracts showed the existence of bioactive compounds. The outcome showed the detection of tannin, phenol, alkaloid, flavonoid, protein and carbohydrate in all leaf extracts, with ethanol having the highest concentration of these phytochemicals (p<0.05). The in-vitro free radical scavenging properties of bitter kola leaf extracts against 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl showed that the n-hexane leaf extract recorded the highest inhibitory activities when compared to both n-hexane and ethanol extracts (p<0.05) across all concentrations. However, all extracts showed increase in inhibitory activities with increasing concentrations. When compared to both n-hexane and ethanol leaf extracts, the ferric reducing antioxidant capacity of Garcinia kola leaf extracts rose with concentrations, with the aqueous leaf extract having the strongest reducing characteristics from 5mg/ml to 7mg/ml (p<0.05). The bioactive compounds present in bitter kola leaves makes it consumable and suitable in the treatment of different diseases such as bacterial infection, cancer, diabetics and inflammation because its level of effectiveness is confirmed in traditional medicine.
