e3“maize grains treated with mixture of urea and zinc applied twice contain the highest content of antioxidant activity (DPPH) (89.10%); trypsin inhibitor activity (T1A), (0.51 IU/mg) and α-amylase inhibitors (12.75 AIU/g) compared with control maize grains”

Other claims from this paper (17)
- Intervention effect In vitro, urea alone or mixed with boron, zinc or potassium significantly reduced radial growth and sporulation of Fusarium moniliforme.
- Intervention effect In vitro, boron and zinc alone reduced radial growth and sporulation of Fusarium moniliforme, less than the urea mixtures.
- Intervention effect Potassium alone was not effective against radial growth and sporulation of Fusarium moniliforme compared with control.
- Intervention effect Twice-applied mixtures of urea with boron, zinc or potassium gave better maize yield and 100-grain weight than each nutrient alone.
- Intervention effect Twice-applied urea mixtures gave the least maize ear and grain rot disease, caused by Fusarium moniliforme.
- Intervention effect Foliar nutrients reduced maize grain fungal infection, mainly by Fusarium moniliforme, compared with control.
- Observation Twice-applied boron alone gave the highest crude protein content in maize grains (10.60%).
- Observation Twice-applied mixture of urea and zinc gave the second-highest crude protein content in maize grains (10.40%).
- Observation Urea and boron mixture applied twice gave the lowest crude protein content in maize grains (9.35%).
- Observation Twice-applied mixture of urea and zinc gave the highest total polyphenol content in maize grains (320 mg GAE/100g).
- Observation Twice-applied mixture of urea and boron gave the next-highest total polyphenol content in maize grains (305 mg GAE/100g).
- Observation Control maize grains had the lowest total polyphenol content (215 mg GAE/100g).
- Intervention effect Twice-applied mixture of urea and zinc raised the antioxidant activity (DPPH) of maize grains to 89.10% compared with control.
- Intervention effect Twice-applied mixture of urea and zinc raised the α-amylase inhibitor activity of maize grains to 12.75 AIU/g compared with control.
- Intervention effect Adding corn flour and Gum Arabic in place of wheat flour increased arrival time, developing time and dough stability.
- Intervention effect Adding corn flour and Gum Arabic in place of wheat flour increased the dough weakening value (B.U).
- Intervention effect Adding corn flour and Gum Arabic in place of wheat flour decreased dough water absorption.
