The interest in natural antioxidants, especially polyphenols, is growing more and thanks to their positive contribution human health. Thus, the prevention from harmful action of oxidative stress which has been involved many diseases such as cancer, inflammation diabetes, cardiovascular illness. Recent research proved bioactive compounds richness date seeds could be a good biological matrix antioxidants. Unfortunately, an important quantity Tunisian dates seed discarded yearly.In this study,...
Summary Fruits of date palm ( Phoenix dactylifera L.) are consumed throughout the world and a vital component diet in most Arabian countries. This study has been carried out to evaluate total phenolic content antioxidant activity four fruit varieties grown Tunisia. All measurements were made at ‘tamar’ stage‐the final stage ripeness. The found be rich ranging from 209.42 mg equivalent gallic acid/100 g fresh weight Kentichi 447.73 Allig. studied characterised by high 866.82 for Deglet Nour...
Summary Physico‐chemical and aroma volatile compositions of three date palm cultivars were studied throughout fruit maturation ( besser , rutab tamr stages) during 2008 harvest season. The parameters varied significantly through the different stages, with some variations also depending on cultivar. Length width types dates showed a progressive decrease ripening. pH level, total sugars ash contents increased up to stage. Conversely, moisture, lipid protein decreased. profile compounds was...
Background: Many experimental studies have suggested an important role for barley Rihane(BR)in the prevention of colon cancer and cardiovascular diseases.The objective this study was to evaluate physico-chemical properties nutritional characterizations BR compared other varieties grown in Tunisia (Manel, Roho Tej).Material Methods: Total, insoluble soluble dietary fiber(β-glucan),total protein, ash some minerals Tunisian were determined. Results:The results revealed that is good source fiber...
Summary This paper reports a discrimination study based on the physico‐chemical characteristics, fatty acids and profile of volatile compounds seeds from seven date palm varieties ( Phoenix dactylifera L.) grown in Tunisia. Date contained 10.49–14.76% moisture; 6.28–11.2% fat (on dry weight basis); 2.67–12.85% protein; 0.91–6.06% reducing sugar; 0.61–2.98% sucrose 0.97–1.17% ash. Gas liquid chromatography revealed that oil fraction eighteen acids, with oleic acid (30.77–42.50%) lauric...
The present study was designed to investigate the protective effect of aqueous date extract (ADE) against dichloroacetic acid (DCA)-induced testicular injury in rats. Forty-eight male Wistar rats were randomly divided into six groups eight: group I served as control; II given ADE (4 ml/kg) by gavage; III and IV received DCA at 0.5 2 g/L drinking water, respectively; V VI respectively, before administration. experiment performed for two months. Results showed that absolute weights testes...
Phoenix dactylifera L. has traditionally been used as a medicine in many cultures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional properties, aromatic compounds, total phenolic content and antioxidant activity ten ripe date fruit varieties grown Tunisia. Sugar profiles were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, while fatty acid compounds detected gas chromatography GC-Electron Impact Mass Spectroscopy. Total contents measured using colorimetric methods, whereas...
Objective: To examine the nonvolatile components of date pulp and seeds two minor Tunisian palm cultivars Arechti Korkobbi at besser stage to investigate their antioxidant activity, phytochemical compounds aromatic volatiles composition.Methods: The physico-chemical properties, aroma composition, mineral profile, content in vitro activity those common fruit varieties were evaluated.All measurements made stage, which showed highest amount secondary metabolites.Results: New are detected both...
