Chemical composition of different morphological parts from ‘Dwarf Cavendish’banana plant and their potential as a non-wood renewable source of natural products
Open accessAbstract
The study on chemical composition and structure of components from different morphological parts of 'Dwarf Cavendish' banana plant (petioles/midrib, leaf blades, floral stalk, leaf sheaths and rachis) have been carried out aiming to evaluate their potential as eventual raw materials for the chemical processing. Macromolecular components were analysed using solid-state NMR, ATR-FTIR and wet chemistry methods. Mineral components were assessed by ICP analysis of ashes obtained after raw material calcinations. It was verified that chemical composition of the studied fractions of banana plant varies significantly. The major extremes were found in the contents of cellulose (37.3% in leaf sheaths and only 15.7% in floral stalk), starch (26.3 in floral stalk and 0.4% in petioles/midrib), lignin (24.3% in leaf blades and 10.5% in rachis) and lipophilic extractives (5.8% in leaf blades and 1.2% in petioles/midrib). All morphologic parts of banana plant contained considerable amounts of ashes (from 11.6 to 26.8%) composed mainly by potassium, calcium and silicium salts. The hemicelluloses in banana plant are proposed to be mainly glucuronoxylan and xyloglucan (from 5.5% in floral stalk to 21.5% in petioles/midrib). Rather significant amount of proteins was found in leaf blades (8.3%). Lignin analysis revealed that it is of HGS type with H:G:S proportion ranged of (5-17):(18-54):(35-71). The significant variation of lignin structure among the different morphological parts of banana plant was highlighted. Results of this study allowed some propositions about possible applications of banana plant residues as non-wood renewable source of natural products.

Inflorescences contain enough starch to make it worth obtaining and can be used in the pharmaceutical and food industries.
“Inflorescences contain enough starch to make it worth obtaining and can be used in the pharmaceutical and food industries [15].”
From Potential Valorization of Banana Production Waste in Developing Countries: Bio-Engineering Aspects (2024) · cites this paper as [15]
The Conclusion (page not provided) reports that the floral stalk contains more than 26% starch and is a potential source for food and technical uses. It does not specifically identify pharmaceutical uses, and its finding concerns the floral stalk rather than inflorescences as a whole. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
