Abstract
Some Aspects of Nutrient, Antinutrient, Minerals and Sugars Contents of Thaumatococcus daniellii (Benn.) Seeds
Highlights
Thaumatococcus daniellii is a non-timber forest product along with other materials such as mushrooms
This study evaluated the nutrient, antinutrient, minerals and sugars contents of T. daniellii seeds
Despite these levels of information, reports on the sugar fractions of the seed in addition to the nutrient, antinutrient and mineral components is reported here to supplement existed information on T. daniellii seed in order to enhance its optimal usage industrially and in areas where it can be newly introduced as a source of natural sweetener
Summary
Thaumatococcus daniellii is a non-timber forest product along with other materials such as mushrooms. Nutrients and antinutrients contents of different seeds have been reported by several researchers [5,6,7,8] and earlier studies on chemical composition of seed, tissue, leaf and fruit of T. danielli have been documented by Abiodun et al [9], Elemo et al [10] and Chinedu et al [11] Despite these levels of information, reports on the sugar fractions of the seed in addition to the nutrient, antinutrient and mineral components is reported here to supplement existed information on T. daniellii seed in order to enhance its optimal usage industrially and in areas where it can be newly introduced as a source of natural sweetener
