Changes in phenolic composition and antioxidant activity during germination of quinoa seeds (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.)
Quinoa seed (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) has obtained great interest in recent years due to its high nutritional value and its content of natural antioxidants and other phytochemicals with positive biological activity in humans. Their ability as health promoters depends strictly on the processing conditions to which the seeds are submitted. In this work, quinoa seeds were subjected to germinatio...
متن کاملDistribution of minerals in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) seeds.
The distribution of minerals in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) seed was examined using energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX) in combination with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Phosphorus, K, and Mg coincided in localization in embryonic tissue. Since phytin globoids have been known to localize in protein bodies in embryonic cells of quinoa seed, it is thought that P is attributed...

متن کاملQuinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.): composition, chemistry, nutritional, and functional properties.
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), which is considered a pseudocereal or pseudograin, has been recognized as a complete food due to its protein quality. It has remarkable nutritional properties; not only from its protein content (15%) but also from its great amino acid balance. It is an important source of minerals and vitamins, and has also been found to contain compounds like polyphenols, ph...
متن کاملCardinal temperatures for seed germination of three Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) cultivars
Quinoa (Chenepodium quinoa Willd.) is a grain-like crop which has a high potential of crop yield under arid environments. The objective of this study was to evaluate the responses of seed germination rate and percentage to temperatures and estimate cardinal temperatures in three quinoa cultivars (i.e., Sajama, Titicaca and Santamaria). Germination of quinoa seeds were daily counted at the tempe...
