Andualem and Gessesse SpringerPlus 2014, 3:298 http://springerplus/content/3/1/a SpringerOpen JournalRESEARCHOpen AccessProximate composition, mineral content and antinutritional factors of Brebra (Millettia ferruginea) seed flour as well as physicochemical characterization of its seed oilBerhanu Andualem1* and Amare GessesseAbstractStill there’s no scientific report about the proximate evaluation of seeds and characteristics of oil made from brebra seed. Objective of this study was to decide proximate and antinutritional traits of seeds as well because the physicochemical traits of brebra seed oil. Crude oil, protein, fiber, ash, moisture and carbohydrate content of brebra had been 48.5 ?0.99 , 29.7 ?0.23 , 2.41 ?0.12 , 3.24 ?0 , 4.24 ?0.04 and11.92 ?0.two , respectively. Seed has concentrated power (six.0298 Kcal/gm). The respective tannin, oxalate and phytic acid value had been 84.3 ?0.89 mg/100 gm, 20.97 ?0.36 mg/100 gm and 291.62 ?0.87 mg/100 gm, respectively. Cyanide was not detected in the sample. Seed consists of higher concentration of phosphorus (1062.1 ?0.three mg/100 g), potassium (281 ?0.1 mg/100 g), magnesium (112.38 ?0.1 mg/g), sodium (93.26 ?0.1 mg/g) and calcium (61.55 ?0.01 mg/g). The oil was analyzed for distinct gravity at 20 , viscosity at 40 , refractive index at 40 , acid value, saponification value, iodine worth, peroxide worth and ester worth. Their respective values were 0.942, 40.59 mm2/s, 1.473, 0.39 mg KOH/g, 174.95 mg KOH/g, 104.48 gI2/100 g, six.88 and 174.56 mg KOH/g. Unsaturated fatty acids accounts (80.7 ), of which 48.two and 27.7 have been linolcic and linolenic, respectively, which make suitable for production of biodiesel. Seed has greater nutrient composition, low antinutritional elements and higher calorie worth in comparison with some legumes.

Baker is usually a useful endemic tree species of Ethiopia with great prospective for agroforestry. It really is belonging to the family Fabaceae (Leguminosae) sub-family Papilionnodeae. This plant is recognized to possess two subspecies, namely, ferruginae and darassana (Thulin 1983). Subspecies ferruginae is identified to occur at North Ethiopia inside the selection of 1,000 and 2,500 m above sea level, when subspecies darassana is situated inside the southern part of the nation (particularly in Sidamo) within the selection of 1,600 and two,500 m above sea level.4-Aminobutan-1-ol Chemical name The hybrid from the two subspecies believed to be identified inside the central and western part of Ethiopia (Thulin 1983).n-(2-Methoxyethyl)aniline structure According to the* Correspondence: tberhanu2007@gmail 1 Department of Biotechnology, Natural and Computational Sciences Faculty, University of Gondar, P.PMID:23962101 O. Box 196, Gondar, Ethiopia Complete list of author info is available at the end in the articleflora of Ethiopia, vol. 3:108, (1989), Millettia ferruginea located inside the following regions: subspecies ferruginea; Tigray, Gondar, Gojam, Shewa, Welega and Hareg. The subspecies darassana is commonly found in Welega, Shewa, Harege, Bale, Ilubabor, Kefa and Sidamo. Any way each species are believed to become located only in Ethiopia, despite as however an unconfirmed report in the Sudan (Thulin 1989). Mi.
