    Comparative Study of Extracted Indigofera Tinctoria Solvent and Synthetic Indigo Dye Pattern on Cotton Fabric for Entrepreneurial Development in Ilorin west local government area of Kwara state, Nigeria
    (Published by South African Renewable Energy Technology Center(SARETEC),Cape Peninsula University of Technology, Cape Town, South Africa and True Scholar Research Limited Kemp House 152-160, city road London ECIV 2NX, 2019) Babayeju, A.A; Adebisi, T.T; Gbadebo, C.T.; Kareem, M.B; Adetona, L.A
    The study investigated extracted indigofera tinctoria solvent compared with synthetic indigo dye pattern on cotton fabric in Ilorin Nigeria. Specifically, the study extracted dye from indigo leaves and compared it with synthetic indigo dye applied to the same texture of cotton fabric. Four objectives and two hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significant.. Experimental research design was adopted with a population of 150 dyers stratified with 20% to obtain a sample size of 30 dyers. The instrument was sensory score card accessed with 7 point hedonic scale. The data collected was based on appearance, colour brightness, texture, smell, length, finishing and overall acceptability. Data collected was analyzed with mean, standard deviation and t-test. The findings showed a significant difference between fabrics dyed with indigofera tinctoria solvent and synthetic indigo dye on cotton fabric. All results based on sensory score card were accepted. The study concluded that there was a wide range difference in the level of acceptability of onion skin and synthetic dye on fabric. It was recommended that the knowledge of indigenous dye should be added to the curriculum of textiles courses as these will broadens the knowledge of students in dyeing of fabric with different plants, animals and minerals that produces dye for entrepreneurial development in Nigeria.

Some couples experience domestic violence due to nagging, religious beliefs, culture, alcoholism and this sometimes run into problems and naturally couples are not meant to be abused. The study investigated influence of domestic violence on marital relationships among couples in Ilorin west LGA in Kwara State. Five (5) research questions were raised and two (2) hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 levels of significances. Survey research design was adopted for the study. The total population was one thousand eight hundred and thirty three (1,833). The sample for the study comprised two hundred (200) respondents constituting approximately 11% of the population. Multistage sampling techniques was used to select sample for this study. 200 couples were selected at random from Ilorin west LGA, Kwara State. Domestic Violence and Marital Relationship Questionnaire (DVMRQ) is the instrument that was used for data collection for this study. Research questions 1-5 were analysed using frequencies, percentages, mean, standard deviation and cross tabulation. The Null Hypotheses formulated in the study were tested with inferential statistics such as t-test and pearson product moment correlation at 0-05 level of significance at which the hypotheses was rejected or accepted. The findings revealed that domestic violence significantly influence marital relationships among couples as they experience lack of peace in the home ( 3.17) 50% , lack of unity in managing resources ( 3.01) 40.5%, lack of communication between partners ( 3.01) 42.5%, reduction in love for one another ( 2.96) 39%, deprivation of family needs ( 2.71) 27.5%.

    Production and Assessment of Quality Attributes of Zobo Drink Enriched with Date and Mango for Family Sustainability in Retirement
    (Published by Home Economics Professional Association of Nigeria (HEPAN)., 2022-06) Gbadebo, C.T.; Aladewolu, V.T; Adeniji, O.T.; Babayeju, A.A; Okunloye, R.O; Kareem, M.B; Salawu, S.A
    The study assessed the quality attribute of Zobo drink enriched with Date and Mango. Four (4) research questions were raised and one (1) hypothesis formulated and tested @ 0.05 level of significance. Research and Development Design (R& D) was adopted. Judges were presented with four possible formulations of Zobo drink enrich with Date and Mango-ZO=100% Zobo Only, ZD=50% Zobo+ 50% Date, ZM=50% Zobo+ 50% Mango, ZDM=40% Zobo, + 30% Date + 30% Mango. Sensory Evaluation was judged using 7 point hedonic scale. Nutrient contents of the products were calculated to determine the proximate analysis. The result shows that the sample ZD=Zobo and Date was the most preferred in colour, taste and overall acceptability 6.35(±.62).. Findings of nutritional value revealed that Sample ZO=Zobo only has the highest protein (2.14%) and moisture content (92.55%) ZDM=Zobo, Date and Mango has the highest fibre, carbohydrate and ash content (1.30%). Findings of hypothesis revealed a significant difference in level of acceptability of Zobo drink enriched with Date and Mango in varying proportion (P<0.05). The study concludes that Zobo drink enriched with Date and Mango is suitable for consumption and therefore recommends that the drink should be encouraged as it increases opportunities for both young and old people to drink healthy vitality drink instead of the carbonated drinks. Retiree could start production of Zobo drink enriched with Date and Mango on a large scale for sale to increase their financial stability.

    Production and sensory evaluation of Kunun-zaki sweetened with orange fleshed sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) syrup
    (Croatian Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2018) Kolawole, Fausat; Balogun, Mutiat; Oyeyinka, Samson; Suleiman, Halima; Sanni-Olayiwola, H.O; Kareem, M.B
    Vitamin A deficiency is a public health problem in Nigeria hitting hardest on people in the savannah zones. This has accounted for child mortality and blindness. Therefore, there is need to develop vitamin A rich food that is affordable and appealing to consumers. Orange-Fleshed Sweet Potato (OFSP) (Ipomoea batatas) is a variety of sweet potato now emerging as an important root crop with the possibility of tackling the problem of vitamin A deficiency. In this study, physicochemical properties and sensory quality of Kunun-zaki, a non-alcoholic beverage sweetened with OFSP syrup was compared to that sweetened with sugar and sugar syrup (100 ml/10g of sweetener). The result of the physicochemical properties showed that the kunun-zaki samples were not significantly different in their pH and total titratable acidity; with values ranging from 3.93-4.0 and 0.18-0.20 g/100ml, respectively. The kunun-zaki samples were however significantly different in their obrix content. The OFSP sweetened sample recorded the highest obrix value of 15.20o, followed by sugar sweetened kunun-zaki sample (13.30o) and sugar syrup sweetened kunun-zaki (11.63o). Result of the sensory analysis showed that the sample sweetened with OFSP syrup had the best sensory attributes. The OFSP sweetened sample also had the best sensory attributes evaluated (colour, flavor, texture and overall acceptability). The result of this study showed that Kunun-zaki sweetened with OFSP syrup was highly acceptable and could therefore serve as a dietary means of alleviating vitamin A deficiency especially in the northern part of Nigeria where the local beverage is mostly consumed.

    (Published by Home Economics Research Association of Nigeria (HERAN), 2019-12) Babayeju, A.A; Gbadebo, C.T; Nmom, I.O; Kareem, M.B; Sheba, O.T
    This study investigated proximate analysis and sensory evaluation of yellow maize-based Aadun fortified with soybean sweetened with sugar. Two objectives were raised and the products were in different percentages of 100% yellow maize used as the control, 90% yellow maize and 10% soybean, 80% yellow maize and 20% soybean, 60% yellow maize and 40% soybean, 50% yellow maize and 50% soybean, 40% yellow maize and 60% soybean with the addition of sugar (47gm), dried pepper (8gm), and palm oil (174gm) at constant rate using (AOAC 2005) method. Nine-point hedonic scale by 20 respondents was used and tested with ANOVA. The result of proximate composition showed ranged for moisture as 9.08% to 9.87%, 4.24% to 5.48% for ash, 18.74% to 19.55% for fat, 2.71% to 3.41% for fiber, 9.75% to 22.26% for protein and 41.25% to 53.76% for carbohydrate. The result of the sensory evaluation showed that sample ASS3 was the most preferred. In conclusion Aadun fortified with soybean and sweetened with sugar can be produce successfully. It was recommended that Aadun fortified with soybean should be introduced as snacks to the consumers at homes in schools and for entrepreneurial and wealth creation in Nigeria
