Physical Properties, Antibacterial and Antioxidant Properties of Raw South Africa Shea Butter against Samples from Libyan Market
Vigorous research has been conducted into the phenology of the shea tree, its usage and that of the shea butter extracted from the nuts of the shea fruit. Shea butter is the most valuable product in the Shea tree and its use as raw or in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products was expanded in the last years. The aim was to carry out comparative study between imported South African raw Shea Butter, one sample from Poland and samples from Libyan market on their physical properties (organoleptic), thin layer chromatography (TLC) chromatogram, phytochemical screening and diphenylpicrylhydrazil (DPPH) scavenging activity. As well as antimicrobial screening. Organoleptic test was carried out by comparing color and odor. TLC chromatogram was performed by spotting solution of samples in hexane on TLC plate and eluted twice in hexane: ethylacetate 8:2 to get good separation. Ā Phytochemical screening was performed to determine the presence of carbohydrates (Fehling test), steroids, and triterpens (Salkwiski test). Ā DPPH assay was carried out by spraying TLC sample spots by 0.2% DPPH methanolic solution. Antimicrobial test was conducted on Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Mueller-Hinton agar was used with ciprofolxacin as +ve control and DMSO asāve control.Ā As a result, Shea Butter samples showed wide diversity in color and odor which considered normal except two white samples that might undergo refining process, while spreadability and TLC chromatograms were similar. Samples and control showed presence of carbohydrates, steroids and triterpens. Control and samples had DPPH scavenging activity. Shea Butter control and samples had no antimicrobial activities against P. aeruginosa and S. aureus.
Interaction of primary tillage time and fertilizer with soybean grain protein and oil content
Kvalitetna i pravovremena osnovna obrada zemljiÅ”ta uz dobru obezbeÄenost
hranivima je uslov za normalan razvoj biljaka soje i ostvarenje visokoh prinosa.
Jesenja osnovna obrada doprinosi ostvarenju visokih prinosa soje, dok se sa kasnijom
obradom prinos smanjuje. NPK Äubriva , amonijum nitrat i folijarna primena vodenog
ekstrakta od ploda banane poveÄava prinos soje, prinos proteina i ulja, a najbolji
efekat ostvaren je upotrebom NPK Äubriva.Quality and timely primary soil tillage along with good nutrient supply is a
requirement for normal soybean plant development and high yield realization.
Autumnal primary tillage contributes to the achievement of high soybean yields,
while later cultivation decreases the yield. NPK fertilizers, ammonium nitrate and
foliar aqueous banana fruit extract application increases soybean yield, protein and
oil yield, and the best effect is achieved by applying NPK fertilizer
