Phytochemical and mineral content of the leaves of four Sudanese Acacia species

The phytochemical and mineral composition of Acacia nilotica, Acacia mellifera, Acacia albidaand Acacia radiana were investigated. Both freshly expended and older leaves of the plant species were used for the analysis. Averagely, the phytochemical constituent of the plants are as follows: Tannins (0.18 to 0.21 mg ml-1), phenols (0.03 to 1.01 mg ml-1), saponins (0.11 to 0.23 mg ml-1) and...

Rheological and sensory properties of four kinds of jams

The rheological properties of four kinds of jams (Kewpie strawberry, Marmalade, Blueberry and ST. Dalfour) were determined by the rheometer of MCR101. It showed that all the jam samples belonged to non-Newtonian fluid model, with thixotropy and pseudoplastic. Three jams were fit for Herschel-Bulkley model, although yield stress existed in the samples at 25°C and was calculated as 25.07, 99.13 and 103.67 Pa for ST....
