Broad bean ( L.) pods: a rich source of bioactive ingredients with antimicrobial, antioxidant, enzyme inhibitory, anti-diabetic and health-promoting properties
This study was aimed at investigating the chemical composition (proximate, minerals, fatty acids and phenolic compounds) and the in vitro (antimicrobial, radical scavenging, anti-acetylcholinesterase and protein denaturing activities) and in vivo (anti-diabetic and histo-protective effects in alloxa...

Summary: | This study was aimed at investigating the chemical composition (proximate, minerals, fatty acids and phenolic compounds) and the
in vitro
(antimicrobial, radical scavenging, anti-acetylcholinesterase and protein denaturing activities) and
in vivo
(anti-diabetic and histo-protective effects in alloxan-induced diabetic mice) biological activities of broad bean pods (BBPs), a food waste by-product material. The results showed that BBPs have high dietary fiber (57.46%), carbohydrate (18.93%) and protein (13.81%) content
versus
low fat content ( |
