ABSTRACT The preparation characteristics of laundry starch using cassava tube was carried out using standard analytical procedure. The result reveals PH as 5.140, electrical conductivity 83.110 (NS/cm), Titratable acidity 33.806 (mg/l) and density 1.633 (g/cm3). However, this is work has given a first hand information on the quality of laundry starch produced using cassava tubes.

ABSTRACT This study on the effect of soaking on the antinutrient composition of yellow garri was carried out using standard analytical methods. The result of the study revealed the following: HCN (1.528±0.038 mg/100g), Phytate (0.313±0.018 mg/100g), Tannins (0.762±0.015 mg/100g) and Oxalate (1.030±0.04 mg/100g) for soaked garri while unsoaked had HCN (3.46±0.070), Phytate (0.446±0.015 mg/100g), Tannins

ABSTRACT The bar soap was produced using standard methods and the quality parameters were determined with the use of standard analytical procedures. The result of the study revealed the following: texture of the soap was (hard), foaming stability (stable), pH (10.0), time taken to dissolve (15 min. 25 sec.) and colour (green). While that of

ABSTRACT This study was aimed at determining the phytochemical composition of Talinum triangulare. The sample was analyzed using standard analytical methods. The result of the study revealed the presence of alkaloids in high amount; tannins, flavonoids, and phenol in moderate amounts; saponins and cyanogenic glycosides in trace amounts while terpenoids were absent. This suggests that

ABSTRACT The phytochemical screening of scent leaves was carried out using standard analytical method. The result of this study revealed that Flavonoid, Tannins, Cynogenic glycoside, Alkaloid (when using Scent leave), were highly present (+++), while Alkaloid (Tannin test) were moderately present (++) and Saponins was present in trace amount (++). This result suggests that the

ABSTRACT The phytochemicals screening of Emilia sonchifolia leaves was carried out using standard analytical methods. The result of the study revealed that saponins, tannins and cardiac glycosides (when using Salkowiski’s test) were highly present (+++), while alkaloids and cardiac glycosides (liebermans’s test) were moderately present (++) and flavonoids was present in trace amount (+). This

ABSTRACT This study on phytochemical analysis of tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus) seed was carried out using standard analytical methods. The result of the study revealed the following; Saponin (2.776±0.049 mg/100g), Alkaloid (1.502±0.014 mg/100g), Flavonoid (4.280±0.042 mg/100g), Tannin (0.727±0.012 mg/100g) and HCN (0.473±0.054 mg/100g). most of the phytochemicals were present in small amount when compared with
