“…Sodium content of pearl millet (230.00-380.00 ppm) and potassium (470.00-2,295.00 ppm) of finger millet were also found to increase during germination. Sodium and potassium are important in the diet due to the roles they perform in blood pressure regulation (Yoshimura, Takahashin, & Nakanishi, 1991). The ratio of Na/K of germinated flour samples was 0.07 for finger millet and 0.13 for pearl millet, and it is below 1.0 recommended by National Research Council (NRC, 1989).…”

Germinated and raw finger millet (Eleusine coracana) and pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) were investigated for their physicochemical (pH, total titratable acidity (TTA), proximate, mineral analysis), phytochemical, and antioxidant properties. The results showed that there were decreases in pH (8.50–7.60) with a corresponding increase in TTA (0.0038–0.18 g/L) during germination of the millets. Proximate composition of the millets revealed slight increases in protein (7.61%–7.81%; 10.57%–11.87%) and crude fiber (5.54%–8.81%; 1.07%–2.55%) with reductions in fat (3.84%–2.73%; 7.69%–2.30%) after germination for finger and pearl millet, respectively. The millets were found to be rich sources of minerals, which include magnesium (1,028.42–1,763.50 ppm), calcium (36.42–4,158.40 ppm), sodium (150.00–510.00 ppm), potassium (470.00–4,500 ppm), zinc (20.00–40.00 ppm), and iron (66.00–121.00 ppm) which either decreased or increased with germination. The results of the phytochemical composition revealed that during germination, alkaloid (36.03–74.53 mg/g) and saponin (4.46–31.91 mg/g) contents were found to increase while there were reductions in tannin (0.88–1.64 mg/g) and phytate (7.00–17.72 mg/g) content of the flour. For finger millet, DPPH ranged from 70.00% to 72.14% and pearl millet (49.95%–64.01%), while for FRAP, pearl millet (53.69–53.76 mg/g) demonstrated better activity compared to finger millet (46.91–53.54 mg/g). Findings from this work may suggest that further studies should be carried out on germinated finger and pearl millets to examine their abilities to serve as functional foods.

“…The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for Na + is 500 mg which means that onion bulb can provide 3.23% of RDA of an adult. Na + and K + are important in our diets due to their role in blood pressure regulation (Yoshimura et al, 1991). Na + /K + ratio of less than one in our diet is recommended, hence, onion bulb with Na + /K + ratio as 0.09 is good, and therefore, adequate use of the spice in the diets of hypertensive patients could help in blood pressure control.…”

Allium cepa (onion) bulbs are used as spice in the preparation of virtually all meals in Nigeria, and some researchers had reported its medicinal values. This study was designed to estimate the anti-nutrients and mineral composition of this spice. Standard procedures were used for the analysis of antinutrients. Estimation of the various minerals was done using flame photometer and atomic absorption spectrophotometers. The result showed presence of cyanogenic glycosides, total oxalate, soluble oxalate, phytate and tannin and it was found that, all were in low concentration (8. 64+0

This study investigated the taste and nutritional properties of domestic mottled skate Beringraja pulchra as affected by the area caught, sex, and weight. Regardless of these three parameters, free amino acids comprised the main factor affecting taste in all B. pulchras. Taste values for B. pulchra ranged from 2.24 to 3.61, which were much lower than values for other fish. The total amino acid content in B. pulchra ranged from 18.82 to 21.34 g/100 g, similar to values in other fish. The major amino acids affecting both the taste value and total amino acid in B. pulchra were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, and lysine. Mineral content in B. pulchra was as follows: calcium, 252.7-288.3 mg/100 g; phosphorus, 248.2-269.3 mg/100 g; potassium, 345.9-389.5 mg/100 g; magnesium, 24.1-26.7 mg/100 g; and iron, 0.4-0.7 mg/100 g. Based on the results of free amino acid and taste value (used as an indicator to evaluate taste), and total amino acid and minerals (used as an indicator to evaluate nutritional value), the taste and nutritional properties of B. pulchra were not influenced by the area caught or weight, but were affected by the sex of the fish.
