  • Enhancing the Multifunctional Qualities of Palm Oil With Plant-Derived Essential Oils: An Integrated HPLC and RSM Approach
    Manal A. Almalki, H. Uguru, O. Nyorere, O. Eboibi, O. Akpomedaye, et al.
    Food Science and Nutrition, 2026
    The major goal of this research was to develop a suitable model‐based optimization strategy that will preserve the bioengineering properties of palm oil by optimizing natural essential oils—precisely, turmeric oil (TUO), ginger oil (GO), and banana peel oil (BPO). The palm oil was blended by using a well‐structured experimental design based on optimal mixture and response surface methodology. All the oil samples were heated to 200°C for 150 min, and the antioxidant effect of the treatments on the thermal degradation of the samples was determined in accordance with standard procedures. The results revealed that the kinematic viscosity, flash point, carotenoids, and tocopherols of the fresh palm oil were 32.05 mm 2 /s, 319.74°C, 751.67 mg/kg, and 871.00 mg/kg, respectively. However, the extended exposure to high temperature caused the iodine value, kinematic viscosity, carotenoids, tocopherols, oxidative stability index, and breakdown voltage of untreated palm oil to decrease by 52.37%, 63.34%, 41.11%, 94.26%, 76.98%, and 65.23%, respectively. Also, based on the Combined I‐optimal mixture and response surface experimental design results, the treatments substantially inhibited the degradation of the PO, thereby preserving its quality. The anti‐thermal degradation ability of the EOs was further confirmed by the treated oil's BDV values, spectra, and DPPH values. After heating, the unfortified PO sample exhibited the maximum O–H and peak values of 3400 cm −1 and 1710–1720 cm −1 , respectively; while the blended PO showed the minimum peak value of 2920 cm −1 . Remarkably, the model developed in this study was able to predict the effectiveness of these treatments in improving the PO quality, as well as stabilizing these attributes in the presence of extended high temperatures. The model validation revealed that the PO samples blended with high concentrations of TUO yielded the optimal results, with consistent high retention levels of breakdown voltage, carotenoids, oxidative stability index, and tocopherols, as well as lower values of the free fatty acids and peroxides. Specifically, the hybridization results showed that the ranking of thermal stability effectiveness of the essential oils trailed this pattern: TUO> GO > BPO. Finally, the outcomes of this study will provide a scientific foundation for utilizing plant‐based essential oil to achieve more thermally stable vegetable oils, with enhanced dietary, engineering, and pharmaceutical applications.

    This research aimed to preserve the nutritional qualities of fish flesh during prolonged storage, by utilizing bioactive compounds derived from plant extracts and oils. Fish flesh (tissues) was treated with lime, ginger, turmeric, banana peel extracts, and oils – including their hybridized forms. The dried fish samples nutritional quality, and microbial population were measured using established protocols. Results obtained revealed that the treatments played significant roles, in enriching the fish nutritional quality and also inhibiting microbial growth during storage. It was observed that the treatments played a substantial role, in the preservation of the nutritional integrity of dried fish (mostly the proteins and vitamins), during the extended storage duration. Also, most of the hybridized treatments displayed synergistic mechanistic effects, which resulted in enhanced antimicrobial and nutrient retention actions. Conspicuously, the lime extract played a critical role in potentiating the treatments antimicrobial efficacy (T8 to T13). The results revealed that the control sample had higher bacterial and fungal growth at week 8; whereas, treatments T8 to T13 displayed superior antimicrobial activities. Notably, T8 sample exhibited the best antimicrobial action, recording the lowest counts – Staphylococcus spp. (52 CFU/g), Salmonella spp. (14 CFU/g), Bacillus spp. (3 CFU/g), Listeria spp. (5 CFU/g), Aspergillus spp. (black mold) (11 CFU/g), Penicillium spp. (7 CFU/g), Aspergillus spp. (flavus group) (37 CFU/g), and Rhizopus spp. (14 CFU/g). It was also observed that, most of the combined treatments were able to retard aflatoxin formation in the fish tissues, to a safer level of lower than 4 µg/kg. This study’s findings have revealed the sustainability aspects, predominantly the conversion of agricultural products into value-added bio-additives in food processing and preservation.

    Plos One, 2026
    Environmental pollution has become a major threat to public safety, and the integrity of bioactive compounds in medical plants. This investigation was conducted to assess the consequence of petroleum hydrocarbons contamination, on the nutritional and medicinal qualities of Aloe vera (L.), and to evaluate the efficiency of the various remediation strategies. During the study, soil contaminated with 20% crude oil (petroleum), was treated with five different treatments (T1 to T5), which consist of different concentrations of organic manure, potassium permanganate, and improved seaweed extract manure. All the laboratory tests were conducted by following standard procedures. Specifically, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), was used to measure the concentrations of vitamins A and E, as well as the acemannan and aloin, while the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis, was utilized to evaluate the presence petroleum hydrocarbons inside the extract. The results revealed that, the petroleum contamination and treatment strategies have significant influence, on the extract’s phytochemicals and the antioxidant activity behavior. The extract vitamins A, C and E concentrations varied from 7.68 to 12.47 mg/kg, 1323.67 to 2116 mg/kg, and 54.30 to 73.28 mg/kg, respectively. Additionally, TPC and TFC level of extract varied from 30.15 to 78.50 mg GAE/g, and 9.51 to 38.01 mg QE/g, respectively. The Treatment 4 unit (OM + ISE) showed the best remediation performance, with the highest essential bioactive compounds recovery rates. This affirmed that seaweed extract and organic matters are potential eco-friendly materials, with high efficacy in alleviating the harmful effects, associated with petroleum toxicity on medical plants. This will lead to maximization of the therapeutic benefits of Aloe vera plant, grown in petroleum contaminated environment, thus guaranteeing public safety.
  • In vitro evaluation of bio-fortification effects on the nutritional quality, toxicological safety, and antioxidant of cassava (Manihot esculenta) flour, and environmental safety of processing water, using natural additives
    Tasahil S. Albishi, D. Adaigho, Nashi K. Alqahtani, Rokayya Sami, Hilary Uguru, et al.
    Frontiers in Nutrition, 2026
    The impact of bio-fortification on the nutritional quality, anti-nutritional factors, glycemic indices, and toxicological effects of cassava ( Manihot esculenta ) flour (CF), was investigated in vitro in this scientific research. The cassava roots were administered with, eleven distinct treatment strategies (F1 to F11), formulated from Moringa oleífera leaves, Syzygium aromaticum seeds, and Curcuma longa rhizomes derivatives. Additionally, two control units were used: Control A, which consisted of unsoaked cassava roots; and Control B (the vehicle control), which involved soaking the cassava roots in untreated tap water. All the laboratory tests were conducted in accordance with standard procedures. The experimental outcomes indicated that, the treatments significantly impacted the physicochemical and biological properties of the CF, and the soaking water (p ≤ 0.05). Especially, the treatments contribute intensely to the CF antioxidant activity, and health safety of the fortified flour. It was observed that, the hybridized treatments resulted in a 69.76% reduction in the HCN levels, and a 51.28% reduction in the GI levels in the CF, respectively. Also, the treatments initiated nutrients infusion into the enriched CF, as the carotenoid level increased from 0.47 to 1.80 mg/100 g; protein content increased from 1.34 to 1.99%; carbohydrate content increased from 74.33 to 84.33 g/100 g DW; and B vitamin content increased from 0.37 to 0.87 mg/100 g DW. Though, the Control A flour contained appreciable essential nutrients contents, its high glycemic index potential (78), and hydrogen cyanide level (0.43 mg/100g DW), increases its health risk. Notably, the treatment resulted in 31.11% reduction in the total bacterial counts, of the soaking water, as well as a biodegradation of the toxic metals (Cd, Cr, As, and Pb) in the enriched flour. Particularly, the methodological approach adopted in this research will facilitate high eco-friendly cassava flour production, as well as the utilization of cheap and readily available bio-additives.

  • Studies on the medical safety of botanical medicines: Novel toxic metals and microbial contamination approach
    Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2025
    The utilization of herbal therapies is increasing globally, prompting investigations into the health complications that may arise from drug side effects. A total of 160 herbal medicines (HMs), were used for this study, and their toxic heavy metal content, microbial load and dielectric properties were evaluated. The results obtained revealed that the crude HMs exhibited a greater proportion of heavy metals, microorganisms and a higher dielectric constant (??) value, in comparison to the refined HMs. Particularly, the powdered HMs contained high heavy metals and microbial contaminations. For the unrefined powders, HM samples exceeded the safety limits of cfu/g ? 105, approved by World Health Organization for herbal medications. Regarding the electrical properties, the ?? for the crude unrefined HMs ranged from 9.19 to 92.67; while the refined HMs ?? values varied from 7.35 to 39.15. The hazard index (HI) analysis showed that unrefined HMs have higher non-carcinogenic toxicity than refined ones, with children facing serious health risks as their HI values surpass 1. Crude heavy metal consumption increases a child's risk of developing cancer. This research’s findings highlighted the importance of consistent monitoring of herbal products, as heavy metals can accumulate, resulting in toxicity after prolonged use of these drugs.

    Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2025
    This study investigated the effects of turmeric extract (TE), banana peel extract (PE), and onion extract (OE) on the physiological health status and meat quality of broilers. Two-week-old “Cobb 500” chicks were divided into seven treatment groups: the control (distilled water), T1 (100 mL of TE), T2 (100 mL of PE), T3 (100 mL of OE), T4 (100 mL of TE + 100 mL of PE), T5 (100 mL of TE + 100 mL of OE), and T6 (100 mL of PE + 100 mL of OE). Each treatment solution (100 mL or 200 mL, as applicable) was diluted in 4 L of water and administered to the birds in their drinking water three times a week throughout the experiment. After the 8-week experimental period, the birds’ body weight gain, protein content, water-holding capacity, total lipid content, microbial loads, and the mechanical properties of boiler offal were assessed using standard techniques. The results showed that all supplements had significant effects on all the parameters investigated (p ≤ 0.05). The bodyweight gains for the control and treatments T1 through T6 were 1.87, 2.20, 2.03, 2.12, 2.34, 2.42, and 2.26 kg, respectively. Additionally, the extracts substantially reduced the lipid content in broiler meat while enhancing water-holding capacity (WHC), protein content, packed cell volume (PCV), red blood cell (RBC) count, and white blood cell (WBC) count, antimicrobial activity, and shear force. Moreover, the data revealed that the hybridized additive treatment yielded better results compared to single-extract treatments. These findings hold promising implications for the livestock industry, particularly in promoting sustainable growth, enhancing animal performance, and improving meat quality.
