Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) is a pseudocereal with high nutritional potential and significant content of bioactive compounds, which consumed mainly by the inhabitants South American Andes. The aim this study was to evaluate protein content, total phenols, antioxidant activity grains Salcedo INIA, Pasankalla, Negra collana varieties, germinated for 24 48 hours at 35 °C. Organic were grown ...

Food production and global economic stability are being threatened by climate change. The increment of drought episodes the increase soil salinization major problems for agriculture worldwide. Chenopodium quinoa (quinoa), as a resilient crop, is capable growth in harsh environments due to its versatility adaptive capacity. Quinoa classified an extremophile tolerant salinity, low temperature. Fu...

There is growing interest in expanding quinoa (Chenopodium Willd.) cultivation; however, the main limitation its sensitivity to temperatures above 32-35 °C. Chenopodium berlandieri Moq., wild-weedy North American ancestor of quinoa, was employed as an exotic source drought, heat, and salinity tolerance enlarge genetic variation cultivated quinoa. The present work aims assess influence high on ...

Arabinans and galactans are neutral pectic side chains and an important part of the cell walls of dicotyledonous plants. To get a detailed insight into their fine structure, various oligosaccharides were isolated from quinoa, potato galactan, and sugar beet pulp after enzymatic treatment. LC-MS(2) and one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy were used for unambiguous structural characterizatio...

The only treatment available for patients with coeliac disease is a lifelong elimination of food products containing gluten. The gluten-free products currently available in the market are considered of low quality and poor nutritional value. In the present study, the pseudocereals amaranth, quinoa and buckwheat were studied as potential healthy ingredients for improving the nutritional quality ...

Studies on the bioavailability of As, of impacted vegetables; and As bioaccesibility in the edible parts of carrots (daucus carota), beets (beta vulgaris) and quinoa (chenopodium) growing in polluted soils thought “in vitro” gastrointestinal process; the As speciation both in the edible parts of vegetables and in their gastrointestinal extracts have been performed. Elemental analysis and As spe...

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) is a nutritious pseudocereal that more stress-tolerant compared with traditional cereals. It an excellent example of climate-smart crop resilient to climate change barley. The purpose the study was investigate optimum malting conditions required produce malt using barley as control. Response surface methodology (RSM) used influence two parameters steeping time ...

This study developed a method for discriminating between Andean indigenous crops and hybrid crops, using total lipid composition, fatty acid profiles, statistical comparison. Cluster analysis Principal Component Analysis (PCA) revealed the standard fingerprints of gas chromatography-FID primary acids related to loadings, which shows explained variance (91.4–99.5%) 32 cultivars, including quinoa...
