and Staphylococcus aureus. And low effect in E. coli when compared with other bacteria. Methanolic extract has higher effect on fungi (Asprgilus niger and Fusarium oxysporum) While in the case of ethyl acetate extract, it is given a positive result with the positive bacteria of gram and the negative bacteria of the gram and the positive bacteria of gram there is a difference between them where Bacillus cereus is given with the lowest concentrations while Staphylococcus aureus given with the highest concentration and Salmonella typhimurium given effect with lower concentration and £. coli not give any effect with ethyl acetate extract. Ethyl acetate extract has higher effect on fungi (Asprgilus niger and Fusarium on two species of banana peel Musa sapeintum and Musa cavandish two of them were given a stronger effect and two were given a lower effect with two banana species. The extracts that are given as a strong ereffect are them ethanolic and ethyl acetate extract. Since, the methanolic extract contains effective ingredients that dissolve completely in the mixture, the lower concentration of this extract is given a higher positive result. While the opposite is the case with the use of ethyl acetate extract (Fig. 4-7).

The protein content was found to be 12.48+0.68* and 7.65+0.28° in Musa sapientum and Musa cavendish peel respectively. These results are slightly lower than those o Schmid et al.'**! who found 15.8%.

According to Anhwange!”!, the ash content in banana peel was 8.5% which was lower than what hasbeen found in this study. The banana species Musa sapientum which were grown in Africa was studied by Anhwange™!. Zafar et al.?! tested the chemical composition of peels from three varieties of Musa paradaisica (varieties were Pachabale, Yelakkibale and Nendranbale) grown in Indiaand found that the ash content ranged from 8.9-12.96%. However, samples in this study were Egyptian-grown Musa sapeintum, Ecuador-grown Musa cavendish. The variation in banana species and growing area could lead to the difference of chemical composition. The percentage of crude fiber of banana peel in this study was approximately 14.61+0.62° and 16.36+0.40°% in Musa sapientum and Musa cavendish peel, respectively. These results are nearly the same to those of*! who found that 14% in Musa cavendishii species. However, Anhwange"”! reported crude fiber contents of 31.7% in Musa sapientum. Such differences could be due to the differences in farming conditions and species; the bananas ae

Biological Activity of Banana (Musa sapientum and Musa cavendish) Fruit Peel

Abstract: The chemical composition of banana (Musa sapeintum and Musa cavandish) peel were studied. The proximate analysis was found to be 89.63 and 86.43 moisture and 12.48 and 7.65 crude protein and 3.86 and 14.05 total lipid and 18.5 and 12.26 ash, 14.61 and 16.36 crude fiber, 50.55 and 49.23 total available carbohydrate in peel of Musa sapientum and Musa cavandish., respectively. The ash contained (mg/100 g) 96.58 and 60.68 mg and 137.69 and 81.71 Na and 0.75 and 1.48 Zn and 3.80 and 2.11 Fe and 102.25 and 43.12 Ca and 3804.73 and 2882.12 K in peel, respectively, antimicrobial activity of Musa sapientum and Musa cavandish were found to be the methanolic extract more effective than all other extracts on bacteria and fungi. Oppositethat in anti-cancer activity of Musa sapientum and Musa cavandish were found to be the methanolic extract not effective compare with all other extracts on Hepatic cell cancer (HEP G2) and colonic cell cancer (HCT). The phenolic compound contents (mg/100 g) were determined of Musa sapeintum and Musa cavandish peel, methanolic extract The results show the presence of

GC-MS analysis of bioactive components from banana peel(Musa sapientum peel)

Abstract: Banana belongs to the family of Musaceae and scientifically known as Musa Sapientum. The present study was carried out to determine the possible bioactive components from ethanolic extract of banana peel using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Eight compounds were identified which included estragole (11.18%), hexadecanoic acid ethyl ester (9.76%), epicatechin (9.97%), gallocatechin (8.58%), p-coumaric acid ethyl ester(4.2%) , 1,2 benzenedicarboxylic acid mono (2-ethylhexyl) ester (13.47%) , beta-tocopherol (11.37%) and vitamin E (31.35%).

Banana (Musa spp) from peel to pulp: ethnopharmacology, source of bioactive compounds and its relevance for human health

Abstract: Banana is a fruit with nutritional properties and also with acclaimed therapeutic uses, cultivated widely throughout the tropics as source of food and income for people. Banana peel is known by its local and traditional use to promote wound healing mainly from burns and to help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses, as depression. This review critically assessed the phytochemical properties and biological activities of Musa spp fruit pulp and peel. A survey on the literature on banana (Musa spp, Musaceae) covering its botanical classification and nomenclature, as well as the local and traditional use of its pulp and peel was performed. Besides, the current state of art on banana fruit pulp and peel as interesting complex matrices sources of high-value compounds from secondary metabolism was also approached. Dessert bananas and plantains are systematic classified into four sections, Eumusa, Rhodochlamys, Australimusa, and Callimusa, according to the number of chromoso...

Chemical Composition of Musa sepientum (Banana) Peels.

Abstract: Musa sapientum peels were analysed for minerals, nutritional and anti -nutritional contents. The result of mineral content indicate the concentrations (mg/g) of potassium, calcium, sodium, iron, manganese, bromine, rubidium, strontium, zirconium and niobium to be 78. 10, 19.20, 24.30, 0.61, 76.20, 0.04, 0.21, 0.03, 0.02 and 0.02 respectively. The percentage concentrations of protein, crude lipid, carbohydrate and crude fibre were 0.90, 1.70, 59.00 and 31.70 respectively. The results indicate that if the peels are properly exploited and process, they could be a high-quality and cheap source of carbohydrates and minerals for livestock.

Identification of phenolic compounds from banana peel (Musa paradaisica L.) as antioxidant and antimicrobial agents

Abstract: This study was carried out to investigate the chemical composition and biological activity of banana peel extracts; the efficiency of the different solvent systems: aqueous, 80 % methanol, 80% ethanol and 80% acetone was used for extraction of phenolic, flavonoid and tannin compounds. Banana peel relative antioxidants potential by four assays DPPHÂ·, Fe2+-chelating, Reducing power and ABTSÂ·+ inhibitor activities was evaluated. Analysis showed that the percentage of moisture, protein, crude fat and total carbohydrates were 88.10, 13.42, 7.57, 10.44 and 68.31 g/100g DW respectively. For mineral content, potassium is the major element found in banana peel was (9.39 % of DW) followed by magnesium, calcium, sodium and phosphorus were (0.71, 0.44, 0.18 and 0.09 % of DW), respectively. Also, the content of microelement including iron, manganese, zinc and copper were 96.50, 35.01, 27.95 and 3.37 ppm, respectively. Methanolic extract (80%) had the highest content of total phenolic, flavonoi...
