Abstract— The main objective of the present study was to provide the information on the concentration and distribution of manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb), in the muscle of different species of domesticated birds (guinea fowl, Local fowl, Cockerel) considering both male and female species using Atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Initially, the samples were digested with concentrated nitric acid, Hydrogen peroxide and Perchloric acid in a T...
Abstract - Determination of proximate composition, mineral content, and the effect of ethylene glycol and ethanol at varied pH on the functional properties using standard methods were carried out on the protein concentrates of two samples of Gourd Melon (Citrullus colocynthis L.), one containing hull and the other without hull. Results for the proximate composition for the sample without hull gave 3.99% Moisture Content, 5% Ash Content, 16.455% Fat Content, 52.875% Crude Protein, 6.855% Crud...
