“…26,27 Moreover, the efficacy of methanol in the extraction of various phytochemicals is liberally reported. [28][29][30] This is predicated onthe polarity as earlier reported by El-mahmood et al 31 who noted that solvent polarity is a very significant factor in the extraction of plant active components. The qualitative phytochemical screening of E. guineensis leaves in different solvents (water, ethanol, methanol, acetone, and petroleum ether) indicates the presence of phytochemical constituents in the different solvent extracts including the blended mixture of the extracts (Table 2).…”

Bearing in mind the need to explore the medicinal prospects of this agricultural waste, this study was aimed at the characterization of the chemical constituents of the different solvent extracts of the oil palm leaf. Materials and Methods Oil Palm Leaf and ChemicalsLeaves of Elaeis guineensis were collected from Ovwor Mixed Secondary School in Ughelli, Delta State, Nigeria in the month of May 11, 2016. The leaves were authenticated and identified at Forestry Research Institute of Nigeria, Ibadan with voucher number of F101173.The solvents and reagentswere products of British Drug House Chemicals, Poole, England.

“…Fumaric aid given at 24 g/d reduced the abundance of methanogens in goats fed both low and high concentrate diets by 3 × 10 –4 ( Li et al 2018 ). A study using palm oil extract reported antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli ( Febrina et al 2018 ). Additionally, reduction in protozoa and methanogens in the rumens of goats was reported by Abubakr et al (2014) when goats were fed 5% palm oil.…”

A feedlot study was conducted comparing a natural feed additive at varying corn silage (CS) inclusions on receiving and finishing cattle performance. The study utilized 480 crossbred steers (initial shrunk body weight [BW] = 296 kg; SD = 24.1 kg) in 48 pens with 10 steers/pen and 8 pens per treatment. Treatments were designed as a 2 × 3 factorial with 3 inclusions of CS (14%, 47%, 80%; dry matter [DM] basis) with or without (+, −) the inclusion of a feed additive containing fumaric acid and palm oil (FAPO). All treatment diets contained 16% modified distillers grains plus solubles and 4% supplement with dry-rolled corn replacing CS on a DM basis. All steers were fed the 80 CS diet and adapted to 47% and 14% CS over a 10- and 24-d period, respectively. Cattle fed 80 CS were fed for 238 days, 47 CS for 195 days, and 14% CS were fed for 168 days to a common backfat of 1.28 cm (P ≥ 0.59). There were no interactions for CS inclusion and the inclusion of FAPO on final body weight (FBW), DMI, ADG, G:F, hot carcass weight (HCW), LM area, marbling, or calculated yield grade (CYG; P ≥ 0.15). There was no significant difference for FBW, DMI, ADG, G:F, HCW, marbling, or CYG for cattle fed with or without FAPO (P ≥ 0.13). However, there was a quadratic response for FBW, ADG, G:F, HCW, marbling, and CYG with increased inclusion of CS (P ≤ 0.04). Inclusion of FAPO had no effect on performance. Feeding CS at greater inclusions decreased daily gain and feed efficiency but increased FBW when fed to an equal fat endpoint. CS gave greater returns ($/animal) when fed at 80% of diet DM. Feeding greater amounts of CS can be an economical way to finish cattle. In this study, FAPO did not affect animal performance, carcass characteristics, or economic return.

“…Methanol extract from FOPF in treatments A and C contains small amounts of tannin compounds (+). The tannin compounds found in oil palm plants are reported by Sasidharan [7] in methanol extract of palm oil leaves; Febrina et al [6] on the ethanol extract of oil palm fronds. The presence of tannin compounds in methanol extract in treatments A and C shows that methanol extract from FOPF has the potential to be antimicrobial.…”

“…Palm oil fronds have antimicrobial activity [6]. Methanol extract from palm oil leaves contains tannin, alkaloids, saponins, terpenoids and flavonoids [7]; and toxicity tests on shrimp and rats showed that palm oil leaf extract is safer for consumption and recommended as a natural product [8].…”

This research was conducted to determine physical quality, the nutritional quality and characteristics of antimicrobial compounds from fermented oil palm fronds (FOPF). This research was carried out using a Complete Randomized Design with 4 treatments and 4 replications. The following treatments were performed by the addition of different additives namely: 10% poultry manure, 10% cow feces, 5% urea and 5% molasses. All treatments were extracted in stages using n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol. The observed parameters were physical quality (pH, aroma, color, and texture), nutritional quality (neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin), yield of extract, class of bioactive compounds and the antimicrobial activity test of extracted compounds. The data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance and differences between treatments were tested using Duncan's multiple range test. The addition of different additives has a very significant effect (P < 0.01) on the lignin content; significant effect (P < 0.05) on pH, aroma, color and texture; and no effect on the content of NDF, ADF, hemicellulose and cellulose. The highest yield of extract was obtained from methanol extract with the addition of poultry manure. The methanol extract on the addition of poultry manure and urea were identified as compounds in the steroid, tannin and phenolic classes. The highest antimicrobial activity test against Escherichia coli (12.83 mm) was obtained from FOPF extract (1%) with addition of poultry manure, while highest antimicrobial activity test against Staphylococcus aureus (11.67 mm) was obtained from FOPF extract (4%) with addition of molasses. The conclusion of this research was FOPF with addition of poultry manure provides good physical quality, nutritional quality and can inhibit the growth of E. coli and S. aureus at a concentration of 1%.
