Neuroprotection, HMGR inhibition, vitamin E quantification and antimicrobial properties of palm puree / Nordalilah Rosni
Palm Puree (PP) is a value-added product prepared from squeezed fruitlets of oil palm fresh fruit bunches. Fiber was incorporated at different percentages for samples T24 and PT99 at 2% and 5% fiber incorporated for each sample, respectively. The study was carried out to determine the potential nutr...

Palm Puree (PP) is a value-added product prepared from squeezed fruitlets of oil palm fresh fruit bunches.

The study was carried out to determine the potential nutritional benefits of PP such as neuroprotection, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) inhibition and antimicrobial properties.
