ABSTRACT Estimation of macro mineral content of Citrullus lanatus peel was determine using standard analytical procedure. The concentration of the macro mineral were Phosphorus (P) (15.110  0.0012 mg/100g), Potassium (K) (36.770  0.043 mg/100g), Calcium (Ca) (55.213  0.451 mg/100g) and Sodium (Na) (70.860  0.511 mg/100g). From the result obtained from the study it shows that Citrullus […]

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to examine the effect of effect of the administration of crud extract of Costus afer on some heamatological parameters of male albino wistar rats exposed to arsenic trioxide. Twenty (20) male albino wistar rats weighing 80 – 160g were randomly assigned five groups of 4 rats each. Group

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to examine the effect of ethanolic extract of Morinda citrifolia on the hematological parameter (RBC, PLT, HB, PCV and MCHC) of male albino wistar rats exposed to arsenic trioxide. The animals were randomly assigned into five groups of four (4) rats each. Groups 1 served as the normal

ABSTRACTS The aim of this study was to determine the mineral content of Xanthosoma sagittifolium treated with leaf extract of Alchornea laxiflora. The analysis was carried out using standard analytical methods. The result of the study revealed the following; For test sample : Iron (Fe)(8.56 ± 0.008 mg/kg), Copper (Cu)(14.19 ± 0.120mg/kg), Manganese (Mn)(0.87 ±

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

This project is about the Antinutrient analysis of garlic (Allium sativum), It is suitable for final year research project work for both Polytechnic and University Undergraduate. The project is made up of 5 chapters, well arranged and have been properly vetted by qualified lecturers and presented in accredited recognized tertiary institutions   ABSTRACT Antinutritional factors

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

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

ABSTRACTS Lead, cadmium and arsenic are commonly available in nature and their toxicity has become an epidemiological issue as such this study was carried out to determine the effect of acute lead, cadmium and arsenic exposure  on haematological parameters in albino wistar rats. In this study twenty five (25) male albino wistar rats were randomly
