“…Recent studies demonstrated that banana peel generally includes higher phenolic compounds than those of banana pulps; Kondo et al (2005) and Sulaiman et al (2011). Subagio et al (1996) identified carotenoids such as b-carotene, acarotene and different xanthophylls in the range of 300-400 lg lutein equivalents/100 g. of banana peels. GonzalezMontelongo et al (2010) studied the extraction conditions that produce maximum antioxidant activity (Acetone: water (1:1), 25°C, 120 min).…”

Peel of vegetables and fruits are of the most important part that helps in protecting the body from diseases, getting rid of the free radicals, as they contain vitamins and minerals which are antioxidant, in addition to phenols. Previous studies have proved the existence of vitamin C, E, and B6 in banana peels, especially vitamin C that can act as an antioxidant.The present study was performed to examine the effect of fresh and dried banana peels consumption on liver function (albumin, GPT, GOT, LDH, GGT and ALP) and lipid profiles cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) on acute liver failure rats induced by carbon tetrachloride. The chemical constituents, vitamins, minerals and fiber were determined for the tested fresh and dried banana peels.This work was carried out on 40 adult male white albino rats randomly classified into eight groups (each of 5 rats). The first group was fed on basal diet as a ''negative control". The other seven groups were injected by carbon tetrachloride to induce liver failure. The second group fed on basal diet as acute liver failure rat's untreated ''positive control", the third into five groups fed on basal diet containing 5%, 10% and 15% fresh banana peels while the six into eight groups fed on basal diet containing of 5%, 10% and 15% dried banana peels for a period of four consecutive weeks.Results revealed that all acute liver failure groups administrated with different levels of fresh banana peels (5%, 10% and 15%) had significant decrease in liver function, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-c and VLDL-c cholesterol comparing with the positive control group. On the other hand, significant increase in HDL-c was recorded in all acute liver failure groups administrated with dried banana peels 5% and 10% comparing with control positive group. It was suggested that, consumption of fresh and dried banana peels may modify the risk of acute liver failure patients.

“…A series of bioactive compounds are extracted from BP, including flavonol gallocatechin, pro-vitamin A compounds, trans-α-carotene, trans-β-carotene, β-cryptoxanthin, sterols (β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, campesterol), triterpenes (cycloeucalenol, cycloartenol, and 2,4-methylenecycloartenol), cycloartane-type triterpenes (3-epicycloeucalenol, 3-epicyclomusalenol, 24-methylenepollinastanone, 28-norcyclomusalenone, and 24-oxo-29-norcycloartanone; Akihisa et al 1998), polyunsaturated fatty acids, linolenic and α-linolenic acids (Knapp and Nicholas 1969, Comim et al 2010, Anal et al 2014, estragole, hexadecanoic acid ethyl ester, epicatechin, gallocatechin, p-coumaric acid ethyl ester, 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid mono (2-ethylhexyl) ester, beta-tocopherol, vitamin E (Waghmare and Kurhade 2014), active amines (serotonin, tyramine, dopamine, norepinephrine; Udenfriend et al 1959), carotenoid pigments (lutein, β-carotene, α-carotene, violaxanthin, auroxanthin, neoxanthin, isolutein, β-cryptoxanthin, and α-cryptoxanthin; Subagio et al 1996), cycloartenyl palmitate (Knappa and Nicholasa 1969), triterpene ketone 31-norcyclolaudenone (Knappa and Nicholas 1970), polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine; Lima et al 2008), ethylene (López-Gómezl et al 1997), linoleic and linolenic acids (Rosso et al 2009), water-soluble sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose, and maltose; Chandraju et al 2011) and fructooligosaccharides (Kurtoğlu and Yildiz 2011). These biochemical compounds are extracted by different methods such as vacuum microwave and ultrasonic (Anal et al 2014) supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (Rosso et al 2009, Comim et al 2010) and liquid extraction (Jadhav et al 2013a).…”

AbstractBanana peel (BP) is an agrowaste produced in large volumes annually, especially by food-processing industries; however, its disposal is of significant concern. However, recent research suggests that BP is a valuable source of bioactive compounds, which can be converted into value-added products. This article reviews the conversion process of value-added products from BP and provides an outline on the chemical composition of BP and its possible applications. In addition, we also discuss the utilization of BP as a substrate to produce animal feed, biofertilizer, dietary fibers, clean energy, industrial enzymes, as well as its use in the synthesis of nanomaterials. Based on the research conducted so far, it is obvious that BP has a wide variety of applications, and thus, developing a biorefinery approach to adequately utilize BP will help realize its economic benefits to the fullest. Based on the valorization of BP, a scheme for BP biorefinery has been proposed. A material balance for BP biorefinery for 1-ton bone-dry BP is presented and our results show that 432 kg of protein or 170 kg of citric acid, 170 kg of pectin, 325 m

“…Bananas are one of the most produced and consumed fruits worldwide, yet its peel is treated as household or industrial food waste, discarded in large quantities, which hints at its enormous potential. The banana peel's compounds and nutrients are rich in dietary fibre, protein, essential amino acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids and potassium (Emaga, Andrianaivo, Wathelet, Tchango & Paquot, ), and contain antioxidant compounds including polyphenols, catecholamines and carotenoids (Kanazawa & Sakakibara, ; Nguyen, Ketsa & van Doorn, ; Someya, Yoshiki & Okubo, ; Subagio, Morita & Sawada, ). Extracts of banana peel flour have exhibited a high total phenolic content, around 29 mg/g; as gallic acid equivalents (GAE), and reported high antioxidant activity (Rebello et al., ).…”

Musa acuminate peel extract as an immunostimulant, administrated in the diets of Macrobrachium rosenbergii, and an assessment of a simplified process to develop low‐cost feed additives are conducted in this study. The products obtained serially, during the processes of hot‐water banana peel extraction, were administrated in the diets of M. rosenbergii, including dried banana peel powder (DBP) at 8 g/kg, hot‐water‐treated banana peel (HBP) at 8 g/kg and hot‐water extract of banana peel (BPE) at 2 g/kg during the 32 days of the feeding trial. Total haemocyte count, different haemocyte count, respiratory bursts; and activity of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, phenoloxidase and transglutaminase, as well as an accelerated haemolymph clotting time, significantly increased in M. rosenbergii fed with diets containing HBP and BPE, 32 days post‐feeding. Furthermore, the phagocytic activity and clearance efficiency of prawns against Lactococcus garvieae infection increased significantly. The respective relative survival percentages of prawns fed with HBP, and BPE containing diets after 32 days of feeding trial were 29.2% and 41.7% against L. garvieae infection for 144 hours, and 50%, and 50% against hypothermal stress for 96 hours of exposure. We may therefore conclude that HBP, obtained from a simplified procedure, without centrifugation and lyophilization, may strategically promote tolerance to hypothermal stress, and enhance immunity and resistance to L. garvieae infection.
