Satoimo rich in Hyaluronic Acid ( HA ) , a substance produced naturally in the body and produce natural collagen . Taro flour relatively smooth and easy to digest useful for the preparation of pastries , cakes , breads and noodles . Noodle is one of the many products that are favored by all the community . Has conducted research aimed to analyze the characteristics of the physical, chemical and organoleptic noodles mosaf ( Colocasia esculenta ) . The treatment is done in this study is a comparison of wheat flour : flour mosaf with variations 450 g : 50 g ; 400 g : 100 g ; 350 g : 150 g ; 300 g : 200 g ; and 250 g : 250 g . The analysis in this study includes the analysis of the fiber content , elasticity and organoleptic ( color, taste, texture dam ) mosaf wet noodle . The results showed that the higher concentration mosaf flour is added , then the noodles fiber content becomes higher but getting lower elasticity , whereas the level of consumer preferences of the parameters of color, flavor and texture of getting down , the tolerance level of the composition of wheat flour : 400 g flour mosaf : 100 g .Keywords : noodles , satoimo , mosaf

Taro flour is one of dried products of taro (Colocasia esculenta L.). The characteristics of taro flour that low water content has an important role in determining the storage time. The presence of water in materials is influenced by internal factors of material, processing, moisture of storage and packaging materials. The water level reduction technique commonly used is by drying process, one of them is by using a tray dryer machine. The aim of the study was to analyze the physical properties, and nutritional content of taro flour produced from drying taro chips using a tray dryer machine at a drying temperature of 50°C, 60°C and 70°C with drying times 5, 6, and 7 hours. The physical parameters observed were water content, density and color, the nutritional parameters observed were protein, fat, ash, carbohydrates and crude fiber. The results of study showed that the water content ranged from 6.14 - 8.34%, density ranged from 0.45 - 0.57 kg/m3 and the lightness parameter values ranged from 69.9 - 72.0, with redness values between 12.2 - 12.8 and yellowness values between 11.5 - 13.1. The highest values of protein, fat and carbohydrate were 8.34%, 0.38% and 86.94%. The highest ash and crude fiber values were 3.84% and 2.99%.

The study assessed percentage preference and proximate composition of some selected plant species in Idemili South Area of Anambra State. Plants were identified and collected for herbarium preparation. A total of 23 different species belonging to 16 families were identified. These consisted of 11 trees, 4 shrubs, 3 herbs and 3 grasses. These plants were harvested, processed and stored separately. A 25 gm portion of each plant was measured and administered to 3 matured goats per day. The feeding trial lasted for 23 days. The frequency and rate of consumption of each plant was determined using a stop watch. The results showed that Manihot esculenta representing 73.3 % was highly preferred plant by all the animals while Colocasia esculenta having 18.7 % was moderately preferred. Proximate composition of the fodder was determined using standard method and results revealed that protein content ranged from 5.85% in Tridax procumbens and 23.86% in Desmodium scorpiurus. Lipid content ranged between 1.31 % and 8.37 % for Carica papaya and Manihot esculenta respectively while crude fibre content ranged from 8.09 to 33.01% in Tridax procumbens and Pennisetum purpureum respectively. The highest ash content (11.28 %) was recorded in Colocasia esculenta while the least level (2.17 %) in Tridax procumbens. Also, moisture content was observed to be highest in Manihot esculenta (10.29 %) and least in Dialium guineensis, while carbohydrate contents ranged between 13.41 % and 67.82 % for Persea americana and Tridax procumbens respectively. It could be concluded that plant species under this study were found to be rich in essential nutrients but Vernonia amygdalina, Amaranthus spinosus, Manihot esculenta, Ficus elasticoides and Milicia excelsa were most preferred plant species by experimental animals.

The authors evaluated the nutrients and proximate composition of the puddings prepared from ede-ocha (Xanthosoma sagittifolium) and ede-cocoindia (Colocasia esculenta) pastes. Each paste was separately blended with firm ripe plantain, sprouted soybean pastes in the ratio of 100% cocoyam, 90% cocoyam:10% soybean, 25% cocoyam:65% plantain:10%soybean, and 45% cocoyam: 45% plantain 10% soybean and mixed with equal quantities of seasonings. The formulated blends were wrapped in plantain leaves and boiled for 30 minutes. Samples from ede-ocha were marked 101 to 104 and ede-cocoindia from 105 to 108. Values obained showed that pudding from ede-ocha had a higher moisture content (56.25%), protein (4.47%), fat (1.84%), ash (2.57%), crude fiber (2.46%), iron (0.58mg), and calcium (5.12mg) than ede-cocoondia. which had 5.52%, 4.29%, 1.49%, 2.45%, 2.11%, 0.36% and 5.01% respectively. Also, ede-cocoindia had higher carbohydrate {39.28%}, vitamin A precursor {62.90μg}, vitamin C (33.05mg) and zinc (0.35mg) than ede-ocha which had 35.46%, 60.80 μg, 20.50 mg, and 0.32mg respectively. The ede-ocha therefore made a better nutritious pudding than ede-cocoindia.
