“…The liver is the major site of foreign compounds metabolism in the body (Dybing et al, 2002). The changes observed in the relative weight of the organs such as liver, heart, spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands and testes did not show a dosedependence effect, it can only represent a normal variation and not as a sign of toxicity (Avancini et al, 2007).…”

“…These tanks are around 10 to 20m 3 and starch represents the bulk of the mass: for each ton of sour cassava starch, around 120L of wastewater are obtained. Wastewater from this process has been studied by AVANCINI et al (2007) and new studies are underway to identify the compounds present as soluble and suspended solids in this fermentation water (AVANCINI et al, 2007).…”

“…It is largely used to improve the protein content of weaning foods in developing countries. Cassava (Manihotesculenta Crantz)is alsoamply used for human and animal consumption, as well as raw material for several industrial products; the most important are the cassava flour and the cassava starch [15].…”

Some potential weaning diets formulated from yam species Dioscorea alata variety Bètè bètè and Dioscorea cayenensis variety Lokpa, soybean and cassava have previously been evaluated. In this study, four different diets (unfermented flour made of Dioscorea alata, fermented flour made of Dioscorea alata, unfermented flour made of Dioscorea cayenensis, fermented flour made of Dioscorea cayenensis) were prepared and fed to weaning rats for a period of 28 days. The study aimed to find out the in vivo impact of these yam composite flours. The performance characteristics of the developed products were investigated and compared with those of Cérélac (a commercial weaning food).The body weight change (BWC) of rats fed the different diets was highest in the rats fed Cérélac (3.39 g) followed by rats fed the fermented composite flours (FBBF and FLOF; 1.97 and 2.00 g, respectively) and casein-based diets (2.48 g) and least in rats fed the unfermented composite flour diets (FBBNF and FLONF; 1.60 and 1.51 g, respectively). A similar trend was observed in the total feed and protein intakes of the experimental animals. Moreover, the rat fed fermented composite flours showed high Protein Efficiency Ratio (2.25 -2.37), Biological ), comparable to those obtained with the casein-fed rats. The present study have shown that the values obtained with the test diet, especially for the fermented composite flours compared favourably with the reference diets (Cérélac and casein) in all the parameters investigated and should be considered a good weaning diet from a nutritional point of view.
