ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to determine the antinutrient composition of Ginetum africanum. Standard  analytical methods were being employed in carrying out the analysis. The result of the study revealed the following: phytate (0.794 ± 0.099 mg/100g), tannins (1.042 ± 0.018 mg/100g), HCN (1.2105 ± 0.137) and Oxalate (3.361 ± 0.496 mg/100g). It was concluded that the level of oxalate, phytate, hydrogen cyanide and tannins values of Gnetum africanum is considered low and would be safe for animal…

ABSTRACT This study was aimed at investigating the effect of ethanolic leaf extract of Cola acuminata on the male sex hormones of Albino wistar rats exposed to cadmium chloride. Twenty (20) Albino wistar rats were randomly assigned into five (5) groups of four rats each. Group 1 served as the control and was fed with normal rat chow and distilled water. Group 2 was treated with 30% of LD50 of cadmium chloride. Group 3, 4 and 5 were pre-treated with…

ABSTRACTS This study was conducted to investigate the nutritional composition of poultry comb (Proximate compositions and minerals). Minerals analysis was done using standard procedure while and the concentrations of Ca, Na, K, Mg, P, Zn, Fe, Cu, Mn, and Co were determined using atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). The mean levels of the minerals in mg/100g were ranged as:110.25±0.21 for Ca; 56.92±0.19 for Na; 49.02±0.51 for K; 30.75±0.09 for Mg, 10.10±0.02 for P; 7.15 ±0.17 for Zn; 4.91±0.015 for Fe; 9.65±0.08…

ABSTRACT This study was designed to analyze the mineral composition of Ipomoea batatas. The sample were analyzed using standard analytical procedure. The result of the analysis revealed the following: Sodium (21.14±0.12), magnesium (13.51±0.05), Calcium (10.52±0.71), Potassium (5.12±0.02), Phosphorus (2.94±0.80). The  highest macro–element content of Ipomoea batatas analyzed was sodium and  lowest  was potassium. The presence of these macro-element in  Ipomoea batatas suggest that it is suitable and  good food in the management of impoverishment disease such as hypertension and diabetes….
