In Senegal, fermented drinks called “Niéniébane” and “Poukh” based on millet are prépared by an ethnical group named Seerer from Diobass areas. However, data relating to their manufacture characterization almost non-existent. This study aims describe production process evaluate chemical qualities. The description of the processes was made two sites in Diass (Thiès, Senegal). Samples were then analyzed at levels. is a drink flour aqueous extract Boscia senegalensis steams matures for 9 days...
Baobab fruit nectar is a good source of energy in the form carbohydrates, vitamin C, dietary fiber and essential minerals. However, its shelf life remains limited due to lack suitable heat treatment. The pasteurization optimization tests consisted proposing an ideal scale for optimal preservation nectar. Thus, minimum pasteurizing value 30 minutes allowing elimination pathogenic spoilage flora, resulted optimized 70 °C 25 minutes. latter, coupled with conservation at 4 °C, ensures excellent...
<i>Parkia biglobosa</i> is a non-wood forest product whose seeds contain an oil with interesting characteristics. Extracting this by pressing will produce large quantity of cake. However, these cakes are not recovered and therefore constitute waste. This study set out to transform cake into coffee substitute, using response surface methodology optimise roasting conditions. The time temperature varied from 10 20 minutes 190°C 210°C respectively. Statistical...
The aim of this study is to perform phytochemical screening the leaves Piliostigma reticulatum and thonningii, determine phenolic, flavonoids, tannins, sugars content in their methanolic extracts, evaluate antioxidant activity using DPPH ABTS tests, test anti-inflammatory effect vitro heat-induced albumin denaturation inhibition method. Phytochemical revealed presence polyphenols alkaloids both plants. Yields extracts ranged from 7% 18% for P. 4% 16% thonningii. phenolic extract 74.66 ± 1.76...
In this study, the effect of extraction processes on physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant potential baobab (Adansonia digitata L.) seed oil was evaluated. The oils were extracted, one hand, by cold pressing, other with three types organic solvents (acetone, chloroform, n-hexane). recorded results indicated that yield significantly impacted both method polarity solvent used. addition, chloroform provides best (40.12 ± 0.607). However, pressure preserves at bioactive properties...

As a good food supply for the local people in various Senegalese regions, forest fruits are becoming very important. They using between foods or main condiment dishes many part of Africa. These represent non negligible sources vitamins, carbohydrates and minerals. Instead more commercialized species such as Adansonia digitata L., Detarium senegalensis J.F.Gmel., Saba (A.DC.) Pichon, Tamarindus indica this article focused on nutritional values other with little interest neglected. were Ficus...
Native of West Africa, Saba senegalensis belongs to the family Apocynaceae, and is a wild plant that mainly exploited in diet. It grows along riverbanks, wooded savannah areas humid areas, gallery forests rocky ravines hills. large woody liana with white latex, dark gray bark, can reach more than 40 m high trunk measure up 47 cm diameter. The fruit globose shell, 7 10 long, 6 8 wide. leaves are opposite, elliptical, green color, about 15 long 4 This characterized by its richness antioxidant...
The Oven drying kinetics mathematical modelling of four Senegalese onion varieties is carried out in the temperature range from 50 °C to 70 °C. R2 (dispersion test) and χ2 (fit between experimental data values predicted by models show that whatever variety, Verma et al. model one best fits oven kinetics. average for Galmi Violet, Safari, Gandiol F1 Orient are respectively 0.9848 0.9961 0.0010 0.006. This validated on solar greenhouse at variable temperatures during process. Drying...
The objective of this study was to determine the polyphenol, flavonoid and tannin content antioxidant power methanolic extracts from different parts Senegalese baobab fruit. Phytochemical screening revealed presence saponosides, tannins, alkaloids, sterols, flavonoids, coumarins total sugars in all fruit parts. polyphenol determined by folin-ciocalteu method. This method is based on quantification concentration hydroxyl groups present extract. In an alkaline medium, reagent folin-ciocalteu,...
In Senegal, onions (Allium cepa L.) are an important and widely consumed crop. Several varieties speculations cultivated, with yields bulbs qualities depending on technical itineraries cultivation areas. The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality onion produced at Kalassane Nguéthioro sites, using morphological physicochemical parameters. To end, optimized treatment based “Société Nationale d’Aménagement et d’Exploitation des terres du Delta” (SAED) data sheet, requiring water...
Phytochemical screening and assay of secondary metabolites, crude extracts with distilled water, aqueous methanol, acetone ethanol leaves seeds Senna occidentalis L. were studied in this work. The aim was to verify the distribution metabolites according S. organs. Four leaf samples from four different localities (South, East, West Central Senegal) a mixed sample used. Functional molecules such as polyphenols, flavonoids tannins then assessed using various standard methods. results show that...
Jujube trees in Senegal: a comparison between the organoleptic and physicochemical characteristics of wild fruits introduced Gola variety.
To evaluate the nutritional quality of shrimp by-products four approximately isonitrogenous (32 ± 2% crude protein) diets containing different types waste meal were fed to duplicate groups ten fry with an initial mean weight 1.43 0.22g /fish for forty two (42) days. Fishes diet D had highest gain (MWG) and specific growth rate (SGR) those control A lowest MWG SGR. There no noticeable change in food conversion ratio (FCR) fishes B, C which are significantly from FCR that A. The survival...
The present study was undertaken to know the uses and some nutritional potentials of Sclerocarya birrea.The African plum tree called birrea is a fruit Anacardiaceae family, which provides populations consumable fruits during lean season.Although it in Sudano-Sahelian regions Senegal, its favorite repartition zone Ferlo.Sclerocarya being rehabilitated framework implementation Union program "Green Wall".Unfortunately, no scientific studies have mentioned content coming from this area.In...
Sodium bicarbonate is sometimes used to aid in the extraction of total polyphenols. Its main effect increase pH solution. Raising can cause changes chemical structure This lead variations their biological properties, solubility and stability. work studied sodium carbonate on by aqueous decoction polyphenols from leaves Combretum micranthum.

Tiger nut is a comestible tuber which offers many under products such as yoghurt. The parameters influencing the quality of yoghurt being numerous, response surface methodology was used to optimize formulation in order reach low intake milk powder. volume tiger milk, mass powder and sugar are factors monitored while titratable acidity (AT), pH, dry soluble extract (ESS), ash, viscosity color expected responses these tests. data processed with degree confidence p < 0.05 associated statistical...
In rural areas, the local population draws from several forest resources needed for survival including food. Then it is a granary these native people. Unfortunately, useful wild plants are highly threatened, especially by various human activities. Because of this situation we started with open semi-structured interviews to identify fruit plants, their consumed organs and seasonality in community Tomboronkoto. Tomboronkoto located at edge Niokolo-Koba National park (Senegal) mainly inhabited...
La nécessité d’habilitation des plantes utilisées en médecine traditionnelle africaine a suscité investigations sur Momordica charantia Linn (Cucurbitaceae) dont les connaissances sont empiriques.
