Abstract:

It has been earlier reported that Cucumeropsis mannii seed oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants, and minerals and cholesterol-free, and has a lot of medicinal and nutritional benefits. Hence, the objective of this paper is to evaluate the antioxidant properties of Cucumeropsis manni (Melon) oil and its effect on organs to body weight ratio of male albino rats using various standard methods. The results revealed that Cucumeropsis mannii seed oil possesses antioxidant potential and did not cause any change in the internal organ weight, suggesting that the consumption of C. mannii

Abstract:

Background: Cucumeropsis mannii is rich in bioactive compounds, including phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and essential fatty acids, which contribute to their protective properties across multiple organ systems. Considering the adverse effects of hyperglycemia and its complications; this study is aimed at evaluating the protective properties of cucumeropsis mannii in diabetic Wistar rats’ hematological parameters. Methods: Twenty (20) Wistar rats were used in the study. The rats were grouped into five groups: Control group as Group 1, Group 11 (Alloxan induced diabetes), Group 111(Negative gro

Abstract:

In this work, physicochemical characteristics of the oils extracted from Cucumeropsis manni (Egusi) and Citrullus lanatus (Watermelon) seeds were determined, and the output for both vegetable oils was compared. Unshelled seeds of both C. mannii and C. lanatus were purchased from modern market, in Lafia local government area of Nasarawa state, Nigeria. Following dehulling, oil was extracted from both seed samples using the cold extraction technique. The physicochemical properties such as density, viscosity, iodine value (IV), acid value (AV), peroxide value (PV), and saponification value (SV) o

Abstract:

This study evaluated the hepatic and renal properties of cucumeropsis manni seed oil on cyclophosphamide-induced toxicity in Wistar albino rats. Thirty-six male Wistar albino rats were randomly assigned into 6 groups (A, B, C, D, E, and F) of 6 rats each. Group A (normal control) received 5ml/kg b.w of normal saline for 28 days; Group B (negative control) received 5ml/kg b.w of normal saline for 27 days and 100 mg/kg b.w of cyclophosphamide at day 28 only. Group C (standard control) received 300 mg/kg b.w of Omega 3 oil for 27 days and 100 mg/kg b.w of cyclophosphamide on day 28. Group D recei

Abstract:

Palm oil, the most oil consumed in the world, because of its high saturated fatty acid content, is nowadays recognized to enhance Cardiovascular disease risk (CVD). In this study, we sought to propose Cucurbitaceae seeds oils (CSO) as reducing CVD risk and a good source of income. Then, physicochemical parameters, composition and nutritional value of Citrullus lanatus seeds oil (HCL), Lagenaria siceraria seeds oil (HLS), Cucumeropsis mannii seeds oil (HCM) were compared to that of Refined palm oil (RPO) and among them.

Abstract:

Abstract Background: Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Cucumeropsis mannii and Citrullus lanatus commonly called pumpkin seeds or egussi, the oil-rich seeds, have already demonstrated hypolipidemic activity. In Africa, these seeds are popularly used in the preparation of local foods. During that thermal process, the fatty acid content of pumpkin seeds’ oils may be altered in their functionality. Thus, this work aims at studying the effect of stifled cooking on the quality and the lipid-lowering potential of oils’ extracts from Citrullus lanatus (CL) and Cucumer

Abstract:

In this study, corrosion inhibition efficiency of Cucumeropsis mannii shell extract (CMSE) was tested on A515 Grade 70 carbon steel in 1.0 M NaCl solution. Potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and weight loss (WL) measurements were used to investigate the inhibition efficiency. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, atomic adsorption spectroscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy were used to characterize the carbon steel and extract. PDP and EIS measurements revealed maximum inhibition efficiency of 91.2% and 92.2%
