Caracterización química de extracto alcohólico de hoja de guayaba (Psidium guajava) y su efecto como inhibidor de movilidad para Escherichia coli O157:H7
The nutritional contents of guava flour and germinated guava seeds were evaluated. A proximal analysis and in vitro digestibility were performed. There were significant differences between the flour and germinated guava seeds (p <0.01) for a percentage of ash, crude protein, crude fiber and neutral detergent fiber. In the in vitro digestibility, the highest gas production was given by germination, with 40 ml of gas per 200 mg of dry matter. The highest production of volatile fatty acids after in vitro digestibility (48 h) occurred in the germination of guava seed. Basing on these results, it is concluded that the flour and germinated guava seeds have the possibility of being used in the diet of ruminants. Keywords: Guava, proximal analysis, digestibility.
RESUMENPara evaluar los contenidos nutricionales de la semilla de guayaba se emplearon harina y germinado de la semilla. Se realizó un análisis proximal y digestibilidad in vitro. Existieron diferencias significativas entre la harina y germinado de semilla de guayaba (p<0.01) para porcentaje de ceniza, proteína cruda, fibra cruda y fibra detergente neutra. En la digestibilidad in vitro la mayor producción de gas se dio en germinado, con 40 ml de gas por cada 200 mg de materia seca. La mayor producción de ácidos grasos volátiles después de la digestibilidad in vitro (48 h) ocurrió en el germinado de semilla de guayaba. Se concluye que la harina y germinado de semilla de guayaba tienen posibilidad de ser utilizadas en la dieta de rumiantes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
