However, young taro leaves are not eaten very much in Burkina Faso unlike other countries which have made them a staple diet. In the present work, we collected leaves of taro varieties cultivated in the provinces of Comoe and Kenedougou. Our study aimed to determine the biochemical composition of these leaves in order to detect their nutritional quality. For this purpose, we first determined the total sugars in our different samples; then quantify the proteins and finally assay the lipids contained in the leaves of the different varieties of taro harvested. Analysis of the organic constituents gave the following results: proteins (186.29 to 265.23 \u03bcg EQ\/100mg fresh leaves), fats (0.28% to 1.90%), carbohydrates (183.03 to 238.57 \u03bcg EG\/100mg fresh leaves). The highest energy value was obtained with the variety BF\/CO\/06 (1728.71 kcal\/kg) and the lowest with BF\/CO\/04 (272.15 kcal\/kg). This study allowed us to conclude that the taro leaves (Colocasia esculenta) studied are of nutritional interest with regard to their biochemical composition.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section>\n<h2 class=\"sub-title\">Mots-cl\u00e9s<\/h2>\n<p>Colocasia esculenta, Nutritional Value, Leaves<\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ann\u00e9e\u00a0: 2022 Revue\u00a0: Food and Nutrition Sciences\u00a0, 13 (10) :\u00a0835-841 Lien de l&rsquo;article :\u00a0\u00a0https:\/\/www.scirp.org\/journal\/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=120536 Discipline :\u00a0Sciences biologiques Auteur(s) :\u00a0Boampoundi H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Ouoba, Amana Metuor Dabire, Sidnooma V\u00e9ronique Zongo, Hemayoro Sama, Samson Guenne, Renan Ernest Traore, Jacques Simpore Auteur(s) tagu\u00e9s :\u00a0SAMA Hemayoro\u00a0GUENNE Samson\u00a0TRAORE Renan Ernest R\u00e9sum\u00e9 Taro is a perennial herbaceous plant whose large leaves are mainly [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":46,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[223,222,218,226,30,225,224],"class_list":["post-1054","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles-scientifiques","tag-amana-metuor-dabire","tag-boampoundi-helene-ouoba","tag-hemayoro-sama","tag-jacques-simpore","tag-renan-ernest-traore","tag-samson-guenne","tag-sidnooma-veronique-zongo"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/46"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1054"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1054\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1055,"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1054\/revisions\/1055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1054"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gril-ujkz.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
