“…While for other types of MO leaves contain either essential or non-essential AAs within the value range reported by many investigators (Zaku, Emmanuel, Tukur, & Kabir, 2015;Mbailao, Mianpereum, & Albert, 2014;Nouman et al, 2014).…”

“…In contrast, the crude fiber (CF) content was relatively similar among them. From the survey of literature, the CP content of MO leaves varies between 18.4 and 39.1 % (Ogbe & Affiku, 2011;Agbogidi & Ilondu, 2012;Madukwe, Ugwuoke, & Ezeugwu, 2013;Offor, Ehiri, & Njoku, 2014;Moyo, Masika, Hugo, & Muchenje, 2011;Mbailao, Mianpereum, & Albert, 2014;Melesse, 2011;Sodamade, Bolaji, & Adeboye, 2013). While for CF content the corresponding figures are 5.43 to 11.2 (Mbailao, Mianpereum, & Albert, 2014;Melesse, 2011;Ogbe & Affiku, 2011;El-Sohaimy, Hamad, Mohamed, Amar, & Al-Hindi, 2015;Sodamade, Bolaji, & Adeboye, 2013).…”

The research objective was to evaluate the genetic diversity of Moringa oleifera, Lam (MO) and its relationship to chemical composition and in vitro gas production (IVGP). Fresh MO leaves were kept frozen in ice gels pack until laboratory analysis. Four methods applied: RAPD marker for measuring DNA concentration and purification; Kjeldhal and HPLC for analysing proximate and amino acid (AA) composition; and IVGP. MO's four distinct morphology found: green, red, reddish green and aromatic green. RAPD result analysis was 68.8-74.7 %, it means those MO had a close genetic similarity. The morphological differences are also related to leaves chemical composition variation. The highest protein and AAs content were found in aromatic green MO. Total IVGP at 96 hours reached 95.9, 99.3, 111, 115 mL per 500 mg DM in aromatic green, green, reddish green, red MO, respectively and statistically among those was highly significant difference (P<0.01). However, DM and OM digestibility did not differ significantly and estimated ME contents were similar suggesting MO leaves had sufficient fermentable nitrogen amount required to ensure rumen microbes normal activities. Conclusively, those MO has a close genetic relationship but the aromatic green MO more beneficial due its higher content of crude protein and AAs.

“…For macro-nutrients, Ca (1.711% for M. ovalifolia and 1.206% for M. oleifera) was higher while P, K, Mg and Na were all < 1% for both species. An elemental composition of M. oleifera leaves from Chad reported by Mbailao et al (2014) found similar values to the current study of Na (0.08%), K (1.73%), Ca (1.23%), Mg (0.39%), P (0.32%), Fe (97.12 ppm), Mn (29.33 ppm), Zn (19.14 ppm) and Cu (9.07 ppm), except for Fe and Cu which were much lower compared to the current findings (see Table 1). However, Mn was higher than what was found in that previous work.…”

The objective of this study was to compare the proximate and mineral compositions of Moringa oleifera and Moringa ovalifolia grown together at Neudamm Experimental Farm in central Namibia. Moringa oleifera is well known for its rich nutritional value and was compared to the nutritional value of M. ovalifolia, a native plant of Namibia and Angola, which is less studied. Namibia being a semi-arid country, many plants in the rangelands are low in nutrients essential for livestock nutrition. This creates the necessity for planting fodder trees like moringa that withstand the harsh climatic conditions and retain their nutritional quality for the production of sustained livestock supplement. Leaves of both Moringa species were harvested with twiglets, shade dried fortnightly and taken to the laboratory where they were ground and passed through 1 mm sieve for proximate and mineral analysis. Statistically, M. oleifera nutrient values were significantly different (P < 0.05) in moisture, ash, crude protein (CP) and crude fiber (CF) from M. ovalifolia, but had no differences in fat, acid detergent fiber (ADF) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF). Also, M. oleifera was significantly different (P < 0.05) from M. ovalifolia in potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), but there were no differences in calcium (Ca), sodium (Na), phosphorus (P), iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) values. This implies that both Moringa species have similar quantity of Ca, Na, P, Fe and Mn in their leaf tissues. The almost identical nutrient values of the two Moringa species, suggests that M. ovalifolia could serve as an alternative supplement for livestock since there is a known human-livestock competition for M. oleifera, and since M. ovalifolia is native and well adapted to the harsh environmental conditions of Namibia.

“…The plant leaf extract have high sulphur content which probably serve as hapten to induce FDE [9,10]. The clinical diagnosis of fixed drug eruption is made by taking a careful history to elicit the fact that a drug, over-the-counter medications has been taken and when a characteristic adverse cutaneous drug reaction appear at the same site(s) upon repeated exposure to the offending agent.…”
