Abstract Fruits and vegetables are important sources of nutrients for mankind. Among the various fruits available in Bangladesh, mango occupies a vital place in the human nutrition for its delicious taste and higher nutritious value. In this study, five mango varieties, viz. Fazli, Amrupali, Langra, Gopalbogh and Misribogh, were tested to evaluate the quality of these mango varieties available in Northern Bangladesh. Physiochemical characteristics, including moisture, ash, total carbohydrates, total solids, total soluble solids (TSS), pH, acidity, total sugars and ascorbic acid contents were evaluated. The results showed that there were significant (p< 0.05) differences among mangoes of all varieties for physicochemical parameters. In case of proximate composition, the mango variety Amrupali showed the highest ash content (2.34±0.15) and fat content (1.18±0.13). Protein content (0.94±0.12) and total fiber (2.67%) content was shown to be the highest by Gopalbogh and Misribogh, respectively. The selected mango varieties contained TSS of 12.87~20.55oBrix, pH of 4.45~4.67, titrable acidity of 0.07~0.42%, reducing sugar of 8.40~15.43%, non-reducing sugar of 9.24~10.48%, and total sugarof 18.88~25.12%. The study findings would be helpful for the consumers, dietitian and industry policymakers.

This research aimed to determine the influence of various doses of urea fertilizer on the chemical characteristics of mutant sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) grain varieties Samurai1, Samurai-2, and Pahat. A Fully Randomized Factorial Design was used by employing two factors and three replications. The three varieties of mutant sorghum grain served as the first factor while four doses (i.e., 0, 30, 60, and 90 kg/ha) of urea fertilizer administration served as the second factor. The parameters in the chemical test on the sorghum grain include ash, total protein, amylum, reducing sugar, dissolved protein, and tannin contents. The administration of urea fertilizer significantly influenced the increase in the ash, amylum, reducing sugar, and dissolved protein contents of Samurai-1 but did not significantly do so to such contents of Samurai-2 and Pahat. The urea fertilizer dose of 90 kg/ha gave the best results of the chemical composition of the three types of mutant sorghum grain. Chemically, mutant sorghum flour of the three varieties is qualified as a quality food ingredient with Samurai-1 being the best of the three varieties, in that case, possessing total protein content of 7.90%, amylum (or starch) content of 14.51%, dissolved protein content of 2.38%, reducing sugar content of 2.88%, and tannin content of 0.70%.

Free radicals are one of the triggering factors for degenerative diseases. Free radical activity can be minimized or prevented in the presence of antioxidant compounds. The butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea L.) has long been used as a traditional medicine to cure various diseases. Previous research has shown that the Butterfly pea flower has bioactive compounds, one of which is flavonoids, which act as antioxidants. Butterfly pea flower can be used as another substitute in making black tea-based kombucha drinks. Kombucha fermentation can increase the benefits of Butterfly pea flower with the presence of organic acids, minerals, and vitamins produced during the fermentation process. This study aims to determine the effect of fermentation time on chemical characteristics including pH, reducing sugar content, and antioxidant activity. Based on analysis of variance ANOVA showed that the length of time fermentation had a very significant effect (P>0.01) on pH, reducing sugar content and antioxidant activity of black tea and Butterfly pea flower kombucha. The longer the fermentation time, the lower the pH and sugar content in the medium. Optimum antioxidant activity occurred on the 8th day of fermentation in the variation of treatment P3 (3:3) which was 89.74%. These results indicate that black tea kombucha and Butterfly pea flower are categorized as having high antioxidant activity at the interval of 68.45% to 89.74%.
