Amino acid profiles and anti-nutritional contents of traditionally consumed six wild vegetables
The present study was designed to evaluate the amino acid profiles and anti-nutritional contents of six wild vegetables viz.<i> Cardamine hirsuta, Melothria perpusilla, Cryptolepis sinensis, Persicaria chinensis, Lippia javanica </i> and <i> Polygonum perfoliatum </i>from Ass...

| description | The present study was designed to evaluate the amino acid profiles and anti-nutritional contents of six wild vegetables viz.<i> Cardamine hirsuta, Melothria perpusilla, Cryptolepis sinensis, Persicaria chinensis, Lippia javanica </i> and <i> Polygonum perfoliatum </i>from Assam, India. The total amino acid detected was found the highest in <i>P. chinensis </i>as 25.92 mg/g dry weight (DW) followed by <i>P. perfoliatum</i> (19.68 mg/g DW) and<i> M. perpusilla </i> (14.57 mg/g DW), and the lowest amino acid was observed in <i> L. javanica </i>(0.62 mg/g DW). However, the highest non-essential amino acids (NEAA) were detected in <i>P. perfoliatum </i>(3.89 mg/g DW). Among the NEAA, aspartic acid and glutamic acid were detected in all the six plant species which ranged from 0.01 to 0.33 mg/g DW and 0.02 to o.75 mg/g DW, respectively. In this study, the highest concentration of essential amino acids (EAA) was detected in C. hirsuta (1.72 mg/g DW) followed by <i> M. perpusilla</i> (0.95 mg/g DW) and <i>P. chinensis </i>(0.67 mg/g DW). Besides EAA and NEAA, some other amino acids such as phosphoserine, OH-proline, amino adipic acid, phosphoenolamine, and taurine are the most common which were detected. In the study, variable amounts of anti-nutritional contents were found and discussed herein. |
