Quinoa and Amaranth as Functional Foods: A Review

Davi Schmidt et al.

Summary: The increasing demand for healthier and functional diets has brought traditional foods like quinoa and amaranth back into the spotlight. These pseudocereals were highly important for ancient civilizations and have higher nutritional value compared to many cereals in modern diets, thus gaining great prominence in the market. Encouraging the cultivation of these pseudocereals by small and medium-sized farmers can promote food security in developing countries.

Effect of Dietary Amaranth (Amaranthus hybridus chlorostachys) Supplemented with Enzyme Blend on Egg Quality, Serum Biochemistry and Antioxidant Status in Laying Hens

Hossein Janmohammadi et al.

Summary: A feeding trial was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary raw amaranth grain on laying hens. Results showed that high levels of amaranth grain led to decreased blood cholesterol and productivity, while the addition of an enzyme blend improved production performance. Low concentrations of amaranth grain combined with the enzyme blend showed the most promising results in terms of cholesterol reduction. Overall, dietary amaranth grain positively affected egg quality and hen health, while the enzyme blend allowed for optimal balance between productivity and the benefits of amaranth grain.

Amaranth production and consumption in South Africa: the challenges of sustainability for food and nutrition security

Obianuju Chiamaka Emmanuel et al.

Summary: Amaranthus spp occupies a strategic position in combating food and nutrition insecurity in sub-Saharan Africa due to its wide consumption and nutrient-rich leaves. Despite being underutilized in South Africa, increased awareness and research efforts towards agronomic improvement and market organization can lead to nationwide utilization. Introducing amaranth into mainstream agricultural value chains will ensure sustainable production to match the anticipated increase in consumption.

Effects of Using Processed Amaranth Grain with and without Enzyme on Performance, Egg Quality, Antioxidant Status and Lipid Profile of Blood and Yolk Cholesterol in Laying Hens

Babak Hosseintabar-Ghasemabad et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of feeding different levels of amaranth grain with and without enzyme on the performance, egg quality, antioxidant status, and lipid profile of laying hens. The results showed that feeding amaranth can lead to the production of low-cholesterol eggs without negative effects on egg quality. Additionally, feeding amaranth with enzyme additives improved the performance of laying hens. Overall, this study highlights the potential benefits of including amaranth in the diet of laying hens.

The Energy Value for Broiler Chickens of Heat-Treated and Untreated Amaranth Grain, with and without Enzyme Addition

Hossein Janmohammadi et al.

Summary: Amaranth, a drought-tolerant pseudocereal, was examined for its effect on metabolisable energy in broiler chickens. The study found that heat treatment had a greater impact on energy value compared to enzyme addition. However, a synergistic effect was observed when heat treatment and enzyme inclusion were combined in the amaranth diets.

SLE Single-Step Purification and HPLC Isolation Method for Sterols and Triterpenic Dialcohols Analysis from Olive Oil

Manuel Leon-Camacho et al.

Summary: The unsaponifiable fraction of oils and fats, especially the composition of sterols, is key for characterizing and authenticating oil samples. A new supported liquid extraction technique is proposed to improve the analysis and characterization of the unsaponifiable fraction, ensuring high purity and easier analysis of sterols and triterpenic dialcohols. This method offers economic and time-saving benefits, increasing productivity and enhancing working safety in business control laboratories.
