Abstract | The nutrient content of Syzygium buxifolium Hook.et Arn. pulp was analyzed. The pulp is rich in crude protein(47.5 mg·g-1 DW),total sugar(154.0 mg·g-1 DW), total ash(22.9 mg·g-1 DW), Vc(0.12 mg·g-1 FW)and total flavonoid(33.3 mg·g-1 DW).There are many inorganic elements, especially contents of Ca, Mg and Se are high. There are seventeen kinds of amino acids, and EAA/TAA ratio is 39.7.The close degree to standard protein is up to 0.854 3, nutritional index,essential amino acid index, biological value and score of ratio coefficient of amino acids is 2.07,67.54,62.92 and 82.48 respectively. First limiting amino acid is Met+ Cys .It is concluded that the pulp of S. buxifolium has potential exploitation and utilization value in functional food production fields. |
