In this paper, the author aimed to determine the nutritional value of soursop (Annona muricata L. fruit) consumed in Kinshasa as well as the study of the acute toxicity of its seeds. The fruit of Annona muricata L. was sampled according to the ISO 7002 standard for agricultural and food products. The selected fruits were ripe, without physical damage. The usual analytical methods allowed the determination of the nutritional value of the fruit pulp of Annona muricata L. The water content was measured by the method of loss of mass on drying. The total amount of ash was determined by incineration in the oven at 550°C. The mineral elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma spectrometry (ICP0). The determination of acute toxicity was carried out on 25 female mice of the NMRI SUISSE species according to OECD 425 guidelines. For 100 grams of fresh material from the fruit pulp, we noted a very high water content of 84% ± 6%. We also note a particularly high amount of carbohydrates with a rate of 12.2% ± 2%. Protein and lipid content were relatively low at 1% ± 0.01% and 0.7% ± 0.3% respectively. The dietary fiber content was 0.8% ± 0.2%. An energy value of 49.3 Kcal per 100 grams of pulp was determined. The LD 50 obtained was 3320 mg/kg, indicating slight toxicity of soursop seeds. The results of this study show that the white pulp of the fruit of Annona muricata L. consumed in Kinshasa is rich in carbohydrates when we compare it to others biomolecules. It also contains dietary fiber and mineral salts making soursop an excellent constituent of a weight loss diet with a low energy intake.

This work aimed, on the one hand, to determine the mineral and phytochemical composition of Carica papaya in order to guarantee the food safety of consumers and on the other hand, to evaluate the acute toxicity of papaya seeds. The papayas were bought at the Mzée market in Lubumbashi and Selembao in Kinshasa. Fruit sampling was done according to the ISO 7002 standard on agricultural and food products;the papayas were firm, mature, and without stains or physical damage. The analysis results of the papaya pulp showed both for the samples from the city of Lubumbashi and for the city province of Kinshasa that it contains respectively 85.87% and 84.46% water, 0.59% and 0.53% ash content. The mineral evaluation of our two samples presented a potassium content of 200 ± 8 mg, magnesium 13.12 ± 3 mg, calcium 22.15 ± 2 mg, sodium 3 mg ± 0.5 for the sample from Lubumbashi and 192.32 ± 8 mg of potassium, 14.458 ± 3 mg of magnesium, 20.58 ± 2 mg of calcium and 3.58 ± 0.5 mg of sodium for the sample from Kinshasa in macroelements. Concerning the trace elements, after analysis, we found zinc content (0.29 ± 0.1 mg and 0.12 ± 0.1 mg), copper (0.02 ± 0.01 mg and 0.14 ± 0.01 mg), and iron (2.22 ± 0.5 mg and 2.04 ± 0.5 mg) respectively for Lubumbashi and Kinshasa. The chemical screening indicates the presence of alkaloids, saponosides, tannins catechics, flavonoids and anthocyanins in the palm wine and ethanolic extract of the seeds of Carica papaya and an absence of cyanogenic glycosides and gallic tannins. With mild toxicity, the seeds of the fruit of Carica papaya L. can be used with moderate risk by the population.

Assessment of Membrane Erythrocyte Cholesterol Level in Sickle Cell Disease

Journal of Biosciences and Medicines 2020年第11期8卷 16-22页

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the level of erythrocyte membrane cholesterol in sickle cell patients, which is one of the essential parameters of membrane fluidity that contributes to understanding the hemolytic state of the erythrocyte. Methods: We worked with blood specimens from 20 controls and 50 sickle cell patients. The blood count and the isoelectric focusing (IEF) were performed on the samples in order to select them. The titration of the erythrocyte membrane cholesterol was made after washing and lysing the erythrocytes with the hemolyzing solution (EDTA, 2 Mercapto-Ethanol, NADP, NaOH). The cholesterol level was assessed by the enzymatic colorimetric method. The results were analyzed by Student’s test. Results: We worked with 16 control subjects with a hemoglobin status and a normal hemogram. The evaluation of the erythrocyte membrane cholesterol level of the samples allows us to define the reference interval (α = 0.05) at 17.55 ± 3.83 mg of cholesterol/g of hemoglobin. The erythrocyte membrane cholesterol levels of sickle cell patients found in this study were 11.58 ± 2.98 mg cholesterol/g of hemoglobin. In this study, 38 sickle cell patients (76%) were found with a low erythrocyte membrane cholesterol level compared to the reference interval. Statistical analysis showed that there was a significant difference (α = 5%) between the erythrocyte membrane cholesterol level of normal subjects and sickle cell patients. Conclusion: Most of the sickle cells patients had a decreased erythrocyte membrane cholesterol level. This reduces the membrane fluidity making the erythrocyte membrane rigid and more fragile. This may be one of the factors responsible for the lyses of erythrocytes.
