Mineral composition and distribution within ‘Rocha’ pear in relation to internal storage disorders
2019, Postharvest Biology and TechnologyCitation Excerpt :Although there is little information on micronutrients in fruit flesh and/or skin of pear, Clark and Smith (1988) measured higher concentrations of Fe, Mn, Cu, B and Zn in the skin of kiwifruit than in the flesh. Higher concentrations of Fe, Zn and Cu were also found in the peel of banana fruit than in fruit flesh (Offem and Njoku, 1993). The longitudinal concentrations of minerals were analyzed separately in the skin and the flesh tissue.
Esterified plantain flour for the production of cookies rich in indigestible carbohydrates
2019, Food ChemistryCitation Excerpt :The moisture content ranged between 2.5 and 4.6 g/100 g, where the wheat flour was the main responsible for the moisture content in these products. The ash content was relatively low, being higher in RPF and EPF, since unripe plantain flour contains the minerals present in the fruit (Offem & Njoku, 1993). The margarine level used in the formulation of these cookies was different to that used in a previous study (García-Solís, Bello-Pérez, Agama-Acevedo, & Flores-Silva, 2018) due to the textural quality outcomes of preliminary baking trials.
