Chemical composition, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of Rapa Catozza Napoletana (<i>Brassica rapa</i> L. var. <i>rapa</i> DC.) seed meal, a promising protein source of Campania region (southern Italy) horticultural germplasm

Abstract

RCN seed meal could be highly regarded as a component of human nutrition and animal feed for its good protein content, desirable amino acid profile and low antinutrient concentration. Results for the sample indicated appreciable antiradical activity and good properties for meal stability.
