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: 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

Mayonnaise, a semi-solid emulsion of oil in water, is much appreciated for its pleasant taste, which can stimulate the appetite. However, many commercial mayonnaises are produced with oils rich in saturated fatty acids, which are responsible for a number of diseases. The aim of this work is to formulate a mayonnaise based on the seed oils of &lt;i&gt;Lagenaria siceraria&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Cucumeropsis mannii,&lt;/i&gt; enriched with essential oils (EO) of &lt;i&gt;Citrus sinensis&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Cymbopogon citratus&lt;/i&am

Abstract:

Field experiment was conducted to study the effects of crop residues in combination with NPK fertilizer (NPKF) on soil chemical properties and growth performance of white seed melon at Ile-Oluji, Ondo State Nigeria. The experiment involved applications of cocoa bean husk (CBH), cocoa pod husk (CPH), cocoa pod waste (CPW), kola pod husk (KPH), Tithonia diversifolia (weed much (WM) in combination with NPK 15:15:15 Fertilizer to produce twelve treatments at 4 t ha-1 CBH + 200 kg ha-1 NPKF, 4 t ha-1 CBH + 100 kg ha-1 NPKF, 4 t ha-1 CPH + 200 kg ha-1 NPKF, 4 t ha-1 CPH + 100 kg ha-1 NPKF, 4 t ha-1

Abstract:

Background: In the last ten years, the resistance of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria continuously increased. The present study was designed to evaluate the antibacterial and antibiotic-potentiating activities of nine Cameroonian medicinal plants: Cucumeropsis mannii, Lagenaria siceraria, Citrullus lanatus, Cucurbita moschata, Salix ledermannii, Gouania longispicata, Psychotria mapourioides, Conyza aethiopica and Conyza sumatrensis against resistant phenotypes. Methods: Liquid broth microdilution method was used for the determination of antibacterial activities, while standard methods

Abstract:

Nine genera in the family Cucurbitaceae were subjected to morphological study with a view to find additional diagnostic characters of taxonomic importance within the family. Qualitative and quantitative data were taken.Quantitative data were subjected to SPSS analysis and Duncan Multiple Range Test to show significant differences. Result of this study reveals that there are similarities in many vegetative morphological characters in the family. However, characters useful in the delimitation of the species include stem surface; mature fruit colour, where it is almost taxon-specific; seed colour

Abstract:

The present study was undertaken to investigate the protective roles of Adansonia digitata (African baobab) Cucumeropsis mannii (Melon), Abelmoschus esculentus (Okro), on lipid profile, bone health, and selected organs (liver, kidney, brain, and testis) against cadmium-induced toxicity in rabbits. Twenty male rabbits were grouped into five with four rabbits in each group. Group 1 served as positive control and received standard feed and 1.5 mg/kg body weight normal saline, group 2 served as negative control and were exposed to 1.5 mg/kg body weight cadmium chloride, group 3 received 1.5 mg/kg
