The interest in stable natural colorants for food applications continues to grow. A red pigment extracted from the leaf sheaths of a sorghum variety (Sorghum bicolor) with high content apigeninidin is widely used as biocolorant processed foods West Africa. This study compared colour and anthocyanin composition traditional extraction methods determine options improvement use dye sector.Sorghum was commonly applied fermented heated foods. Traditional predominantly differed two aspects, namely...
A major drawback to the industrial application of many biocolorants is their instability processing conditions, thereby limiting use replace artificial colorants. 3-Deoxyanthocyanidins have promising features ensure colour stability in food conditions. This study evaluated apigeninidin, main 3-deoxyanthocyanidin from sorghum leaf sheaths, conditions watery extracts and a maize porridge. Apigeninidin was not soluble at pH 5.04 ± 0.02. However, apigeninidin stable 6–10 with increased density...
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) extract is traditionally used as red biocolorant in West Africa to colour foods, among which wagashi, a soft cheese. This source of the phytoalexin apigeninidin and phenolic acids, users claim that it has preservative effects next its colouring properties. If such can be scientifically substantiated, adds valuable functional property this natural colorant, thereby increasing potential applications food industry. Hence, present study evaluated antimicrobial...
The 'clean label' trend is pushing the food industry to replace synthetic colorants with plant-based colorants. However, technological efficacy and undesirable side effects restrict use of in industrial applications. This research studied production fermented maize dough coloured by apigeninidin-rich red sorghum biocolorant, as practised for centuries West Africa, a model assess impact biocolorant on nutritional sensorial quality foods.A 3-day fermentation dyed (containing 327 µg g-1 dry...
Abstract In Benin, P. butyracea fruit pulp undergoes significant post-harvest loss due to its low valorization. The collected fruits in five parklands from a survey of transformer's perception were characterized through their visual observations, the determination dimensions and proportions. nutritional value was evaluated chemical characterization. results this study revealed that four shapes (ellipsoid, globular, ovoid, ellipsoid twisted) identify physical aspect parklands. average length,...
Dans les élevages cunicoles du Bénin, la quasi-totalité des matières premières utilisées sont ressources alimentaires classiques telles que le maïs, soja, farine de poisson, etc. En plus ces premières, certaines feuilles végétales disponibles localement entrent également dans l’alimentation lapins. Ainsi, l’objectif cette étude est d’évaluer comment l'incorporation l’Ipomoea aquatica (patate aquatique) l'alimentation lapins influence leurs performances croissance et caractéristiques...
Abstract In Benin, Pentadesma butyracea fruit pulp undergoes significant post-harvest loss due to its low valorization. The collected fruits in five parklands from a survey of transformer's perception were characterized through their visual observations, the determination dimensions and proportions. nutritional value was evaluated chemical characterization. results this study revealed that four shapes (ellipsoid, globular, ovoid, ellipsoid twisted) identify physical aspect P. parklands....
