MICRONUTRIENTS AND FATTY ACID COMPONENTS OF TWO STAR APPLES, C.albidum andC.canito SEEDS: PRELIMINARIES By Nzelu, I.C, Food Technology Dept., Federal Poly, Oko
CHRYSOPHYLLUM cainito (STAR APPLE)
Chrysophyllum albidum (african star apple)
MATERIALS AND METHODS • SAMPLE COLLECTION • CHEMICAL ANALYSIS • STANDARD AOAC METHOD • AAS (Atomic Absorbtion Spectrometry)
RESULTS Table 1: Micronutrients and Fatty Acid components of C.albidum and C.cainito mg/100g g/100g
CONCLUSION: Palmitic Stearic Oleic Lindeic Linoleic C16 C18 acids C9= C9 C5= C3= C9 C3= C3= C3=C9 Were identified to be present in these seeds.
These seeds could be good sources of linolenicacid for use in oil-paint manufacture
