Abstract:

The use of leaf for wrapping food is an ancient practice. Wrapping of cooked rice with Thaumatococcus daniellii have been reported to increase consumers’ appeal and functionality. There is dearth of information on exploring the use of T. daniellii leaf extract as an additive during rice cooking. This study evaluated the antioxidant and sensory properties of rice cooked with the inclusion of Thaumatococcus danielli leaf extract. Cold extraction of leaf was done using hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and water. The rice samples cooked with different Thaumatococcus danielli leaf extracts were ana

Abstract:

The antioxidant potential of ethanol extract of Thaumatococcus danielli (T. danielli) leaves has been reported severally, however, there is a dearth of scientific information on its effect on scopolamine-induced changes in the rat prefrontal cortex. This study assessed the neuroprotective potential of ethanolic extract of Thaumatococcus danielli leaves on scopolamine induced neurotoxicity in rats. Eighty (80) adult Wistar rats weighing 180-200g were randomly divided into eight groups of 10 rats each. Group A was administered distilled water orally (10 ml/kg) and intraperitoneally (2ml /kg), gr

Abstract:

Background: The leaves of Thaumatococcus danielli (Benth.) have been traditionally used in folk medicine to treat malaria in Nigeria. However, there is no report on whether these leaves contain Nephroprotective activity. Thus, the ethanol leaf extract was investigated for Nephron-protective activity in Streptozotocin induced diabetic rats.Methods: First, the LD50 of the leaf was determined using standard procedure. Rats were assigned to 5 groups (A-E) of five rats. Except for the control group, each group was made diabetic using Streptozotocin (65 mg/kg/b.wt. i p). The treated groups received

The protease strongly resembles papain in proteolytic activity, pH optima, susceptibility to inhibitors of cysteine proteases and in N-terminal sequence. The protease has also been identified in crude aril extracts by affinity labelling with iodo[14C]acetate. Thaumatopain is responsible for the cys

Samples were wrapped with Miracle Berry (Thaumatococcus daniellii), Megaphrynium macrostachyum, Teak (Tectona grandis) and Banana leaves (Musa paradisiaca). Proximate and fungal analyses were conducted on day 0 and day 4 of storage. Fresh pap had 81.87% moisture, 2.47% ash, 1.20

Abstract:

There are currently worldwide efforts to reduce sugar intake due to various adverse health effects linked with the overconsumption of sugar. Natural sweeteners have been used as an alternative to artificial sweeteners, nutritive sugar for numerous applications. However, their long-term effects on human health remain. Thaumatin is a class of sweet proteins found in West African plants from the arils of Thaumatococcus daniellii. The article reviews the Thaumatin Morphology, Collection time, Extraction, Bio-production, Bio-transformation, Properties like sensory properties, Characteristics of pla

Abstract:

Thaumatin, commercially available under the trade name Talin, is known as a sweetest compound (100,000 times sweeter than sucrose on molar basis) which can be used not only as a sweetener but also as a flavor enhancer. This sweetener is a protein found in plant Thaumatococcus daniellii. Biotechnology has also seen as alternative method of production of thaumatin. The plant source of this protein is limited and very expensive. Although the sweetener is the sweetest one, its application is not so common because of its liquorice taste and delayed sweetness.

Abstract:

This study aims at establishing the effect of T. daniellii and A. cordifolia leaf extracts on the lipid profile of experimental rat models. A total of twenty five (25) adult male wistar rats were used for the study. The rats were divided into five groups of five rats each. Group I (normal control) was administered with 2ml/kg distilled water p.o. Group II was administered with 200mg/kg aqueous leaf extract of T. daniellii p.o. Group III was administered with 200mg/kg methanolic leaf extract of T. daniellii p.o. Group IV and V were administered with 200mg/kg aqueous and methanolic leaf extracts
