Abstract:

A well-known edible plant in the Cucurbitaceae family, the pumpkin has long been utilized as a functional meal or a herbal remedy. Pumpkin seeds are rich in phytoestrogens, vitamin E, and unsaturated fatty acids, which may have medicinal and nutraceutical uses. The use of pumpkins in traditional medicine to treat a wide range of conditions, including inflammation, dyslipidemia, bacterial or fungal infections, malignancies, intestinal parasites, hypertension, arthritis, and hyperglycemia, has drawn attention to the need for additional study on both the fruits and seeds of the pumpkin plant.

Abstract:

Varaždin pumpkin seed oil is a virgin edible oil obtained by roasting and mechanically pressing dry pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo L.).

It is characterized by fragrant, spicy notes and a well-balanced bouquet. The basic quality chemical parameters of Varaždin pumpkin seed oil monitored over the past eight years show that the proportion of free fatty acids (expressed as oleic) is less than 1%, which indicates

Pumpkin is usually cultivated in arid and semiarid regions, and the lack of water stress-tolerant cultivars is a major limiting factor. Therefore, this study was carried out to identify superior water stress-tolerant genotypes. For this purpose, 44 inbred lines with superior agronomic traits were selected from the gene pool. In addition, two hybrids (G1-Mert Bey F1 and G2-Sena Hanim F1) and two landraces (G3-Hatun Tırnağı and G4-Cercevelik) with high commercial value were used as commercial cultivars. The water stress indices were calculated from seed yields from the pumpkin genotypes grown in

Abstract:

The objectives of this work were to get information on Zn species in two different specimens of edible plants (pumpkin seeds and iceberg lettuce) and simulation of their behavior in the human gastrointestinal tract. An array of analytical techniques was used to aid in this research: ultrasound-assisted variable volume extraction, size exclusion chromatography (SEC), and physiologically based extraction tests (PBETs); elemental detection was performed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Results show that pumpkin seeds and iceberg lettuce have different Zn species fingerpri

Abstract:

The concentrations of 12 elements (Ca, P, K, Na, Mg, Fe, Se, Mn, Zn, Sn, Cu and Al) were determined in raw and roasted pumpkin seeds by ICP-AES following microwave-assisted acid digestion. The accuracy of the method determined by spiking experiments was very good (recoveries 95.48103.2%) and the limits of detection of elements of interest were from 0.1 up to 17.4μg g-1, the relative standard deviations were less than 3.52%. Compared with watermelon seeds, winter melon seeds, sunflower seeds and hanging melon seeds, the results showed the five kinds of roasted melon seeds are all rich in minera

<em>Fluted pumpkin (Telfairia occidentalis) is</em><em> cultivated for its edible leaves and seeds, which are high in protein, fat, potassium, and iron, contributing to a balanced diet. The variability in the nutritional content of agricultural soil necessitates amendments to enhance soil quality and crop yields. This study compared the effects of urea fertilizer and organic manure (cow dung, poultry droppings) on the growth and yield of the leaves of fluted pumpkin  under field conditions (singly and in combinations) at the botanical garden of the Federal College of Education, Abeokuta.
