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) of the seed oil samples were then examined. The result revealed that the density for both C. mannii and C. lanatus seed oil were 0.98 ± 0.16 and 0.98 ± 0.16 g/ml, and their viscosity are 72.5 ± 0.03 and 57.5 ± 0.11 Cp respectively. Both C. mannii and C. lanatus seed oil IV was 84.92 ± 0.24 and 80.91 ± 0.12 g/I2/100 g, AV was 2.92 ± 0.26 and 2.44 ± 0.04 mgKOH/g, and PV was 3.77 ± 0.01 and 4.28 ± 0.05 meq peroxide/g respectively. The SV for C. mannii is 243.85 ± 0.31 is higher than that of C. lanatus which is 187.12 ± 0.19 mgKOH/g. In conclusion, the iodine, acid, and peroxide values for both samples show that they are safe to consume. The C. mannii SV demonstrates that it is superior for soap manufacturing. Finally, the PV demonstrates that both samples are suitable for biodiesel production, which can help reduce the impact of climate change on our society as a whole.

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 received 5 ml/kg b.w of C. mannii seed oil for 27 days, then 100mg/kg b.w of cyclophosphamide at day 28. Group E received 2.5 ml/kg b.w of C. mannii seed oil for 27 days and 100 mg/kg b.w of cyclophosphamide atday 28. Group F received 1.5 ml/kg b.w of C. mannii seed oil for 27 days and 100 mg/kg b.w of cyclophosphamide at day 28. Normal saline, Omega 3 oil and C. mannii seed oil were administered via oral intubation, while cyclophosphamide was administered intraperitoneal. The body weights of the experimental rats were measured on a weekly basis. On day 29, rats from each group (Groups A-F) were sacrificed and serum collected for biochemical analysis. Kidney function parameters such as serum creatinine, serum urea, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum Na+, and K+ are determined using commercial kits following the manufacturer's instructions. Liver function parameters, serum albumin, total bilirubin and total protein were done by Doumas et al. (1971), and AST and ALT activities were assayed by the method of Reitman and Frankel (1957). In contrast, the activities of ALP were done using the method of Plummer (1978). Cyclophosphamide-induced toxicity was evidenced by significant (p<0.05) elevation in the activities of ALT, AST and ALP and levels of albumin, total bilirubin, conjugated bilirubin, creatinine, urea, BUN, sodium and potassium about the standard control. Administration of CMSO and Omega 3 fatty acid before administration of the cyclophosphamide in rats led to an increase in body weight. However, administration of Cucumeropsis mannii seed oil and Omega 3 oil significantly (p<0.05) ameliorated the toxicity caused by cyclophosphamide in a non-dose-dependent manner. This study suggests that prophylactic administration of Cucumeropsis mannii seed oil could be clinically important in managing cyclophosphamide-induced hepato-renal toxicity in albino rats.

The study was conducted to investigate the effect of Cytokinin (6-Benzyl-aminopurine); BAP at two concentrations on the growth of <em>Cucumeropsis mannii </em>and was conducted at the Screen house of the Department of Plant Science and Biotechnology, Rivers State University, Port-Harcourt, Nigeria. <em>Cucumeropsis mannii </em>is a species of melon native to tropical West, Central and East Africa and cultivated widely in a number of countries including Nigeria, Benin republic and Cameroon primarily for its ‘leaves’ rich in nutrients and are of high medicinal value, which are consumed as vegetables in some parts of Benin republic and in some Eastern parts of Nigeria and for its white, flat and smooth seeds called ’Egusi-itoo’ which serves as food and as a source of oil. Viable seeds of C<em>ucumeropsis mannii </em>sterilized in 70% ethanol solution were presoaked in 50ppm and 100ppm concentrations each of BAP for four hours. Data collection was done at an interval of two weeks. The collected data; plant height, number of leaves per plant, leaf area, internode length, fresh weight, dry weight and chlorophyll content were subjected to analysis of variance and tested for significance at 5% level of significance. BAP was effective on enhancing growth as the highest mean number of leaves (11.6), mean leaf area (73.5cm<sup>2</sup>), mean internode length (5.1cm), mean fresh weight (17.0g), mean dry weight (2.6g) and mean chlorophyll content (35.7spad) was recorded with the use of 50ppm BAP while the highest mean plant height (43.3cm) was recorded in the control. The study established that improvement of vegetative growth of <em>Cucumeropsis mannii </em>which entails availability of healthy green leaves for consumption as vegetables, and for medicinal use, as well as the possibility of improving fruit and seed quality is achievable with the use of 50ppm BAP.

Defatted Lagenaria siceraria seeds and those of Cucumeropsis mannii, obtained after lipid extraction using food-grade hexane, were converted into flours (defatted Lagenaria siceraria seeds flours, LSDSF; defatted Cucumeropsis mannii seed flours, CMDSF), and analysed for their chemical and amino acid (AA) compositions, protein fractions, protein molecular weight distribution, granular surface morphology by scanning electron microscopy, and thermal properties by differential scanning calorimetry. In addition, their antioxidant activities were evaluated using DPPH radical scavenging and phosphomolybdate reducing power assays. LSDSF and CMDSF contained mainly globular shaped proteins with high thermal stability. Composition wise, these proteins primarily consisted of globulins, glutelins, and albumin. AA analysis of the total protein identified 18 amino acids including all the essential AA. These flours thus could be potential sources of antioxidant compounds with higher activity in aqueous than in methanolic extract. Based on their composition and physicochemical characteristics, LSDSF and CMDSF are potentially good ingredients usable in food systems with low lipid oxidation.

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. Four diets, conformed to that proposed by AIN-93G but differing to the oil, were formulated by using one of the CSO extracted or RPO. These diets served to feed four homogeneous groups of young rats (six per group) during 45 days. Diets consumption and efficacy were evaluated. Blood sample, collected at the end of the experimentation, were used to measure out heamatological parameters, glyceamia, urea, creatinine, lipids parameters, Aspartate Aminotransferase, Alanine Aminine Transferase, sodium and calicium. Peroxide index and specific gravity were in accordance to the norm. Free fatty acid content of RPO and HLS were in the norm but acid values of the fourth oils were lower than the safe limit for consumption. Grading of most unsaturated fatty acid content was HCL, HCM, RPO and HLS respectively. Plasma parameters, organ weight and the coefficients calculated were not different (p > 0.05) to each other, but according to atherogenicity index, the grading of high inducing cardiovascular disease was HCM, RPO, HCL and HLS respectively. Without no technological treatment CSO compete with RPO. There are possibility that refined CSO reduced CDV than RPO.

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 Cucumeropsis mannii (CM). Methods: The oils were extracted from the pumpkin seeds (raw and cooked) by a mixture of chloroform and methanol (2/1). The acid, iodine, peroxide and thiobarbituric acid value of the oils were assessed. For 28 days, the oils were subsequently administered by oral intubation to high-fat diet induced hyperlipidemic rats. At the end of the experimentation, the lipid profile, the markers of the hepatic and kidney function were determined. Results: The oils extracted from raw CL and CM significantly reduced (p˂0,05) serum triglyceride, total cholesterol, Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, uric acid, serum transaminases, creatinine, urea and increases the serum High Density Lipoprotein (HDL)cholesterol level relative to the oils extracted from cooked CM and CL. Moreover, the oil from cooked CL significantly (p<0.05) reduced some lipid profile and toxicity parameters (triglycerides and Alanine animotransferase) while increasing the serum HDL compared to the oil extracted from cooked CM. On the other hand, all the quality parameters of the raw materials followed the limits for vegetable oils, as opposed to cooked samples. Conclusion: Stifled cooking affects the lipid-lowering potential of CM oil compared to that of CL oil. Keywords: Citrullus lanatus; Cucumeropsis mannii; Cucurbitaceae, Hyperlipidemia, Stifled cooking.

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%, respectively. Tafel plot confirmed inhibitor to be a mixed type. A monolayer adsorption of CMSE molecules occurred spontaneously by physisorption. Polarization resistance increased with increasing inhibitor concentration. WL measurement revealed decrease in corrosion rate with increasing concentration of corrosion inhibitor. Maximum Young modulus and hardness of 202.4 GPa and 112.3 BHN, respectively, were recorded for the carbon steel at a minimum corrosion rate and load. Pitting and uniform corrosion were formed on the carbon steel in the absence of CMSE. CMSE contains –OH, –OCH3, and –C-NH3 as active functional groups. In conclusion, Cucumeropsis mannii shell extract acted excellently as corrosion inhibitor for A515 Grade 70 carbon steel in 1.0 M NaCl.
