Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Thespesia garckeana pulp contained more phytochemicals than the seed.
- Observation Butein was higher in the pulp (191.86 ppm) than in the seeds (0.60 ppm).
- Observation Genistein was higher in the pulp (39.85 ppm) than in the seeds (0.97 ppm).
- Observation Moisture content was higher in the pulp (14.54%) than in the seed (13.14%).
- Observation Crude protein was higher in the pulp (8.40%) than in the seed (7.00%).
- Observation Carbohydrate content was higher in the pulp (57.18%) than in the seed (41.57%).
- Observation Crude fat was higher in the seed (24.41%) than in the pulp (15.74%).
- Observation Crude fibre was higher in the seed (6.39%) than in the pulp (2.75%).
- Observation Ash content was higher in the seed (7.49%) than in the pulp (4.14%).
- Recommendation The authors conclude that the high crude fat and fibre of the seeds mean they can be used as functional ingredients rather than discarded.
