| Abstract |
Dried banana peel powder was used as natural sours rich of dietary fiber. The supplementation of diet with high fiber content banana peel powder was able to prevent an increase in plasma cholesterol levels, despite the large quantity of cholesterol present in the diet (for rats). Adding banana peel powder at 10% level to the hypercholesterolemic-inducing diet showed to be more effective to reduce the different blood parameters concentrations (TLP, TAG, TC, LDL-C, TC/ HDL-C ratio, LDL-C/ HDL-C ratio, serum ALT and AST activities and Creatinine) than the other supplementing levels, increase in HDL-cholesterol concentrations were also observed in rats. Banana peel powder was used to supplementation of wheat flour (72%) at 5%, 7.5% and 10% levels. The supplementation flour was used to manufacture biscuits and studied chemically, physical and sensory evaluation. The results indicated that the banana peel powder had protein 8.1%, ash 13.1%, carbohydrate 59.2% and TDF 49.5%. The chemical analysis of produced biscuits reveled that fiber content increased depend on supplementation level. The banana peel powder supplementation had significant effect of weight, specific volume, Diameter and spread ratio of biscuits While, (volume and Thickness) had non-significant compared with control. The sensory evaluation showed good acceptability up to 7.5% supplementation level, while addition of 10% had significant decrease of sensory properties (Appearance, taste, color, mouth feel, crisping and flavor).
