Abstract
Tetracarpidium conophorum, commonly known by the names, African nut, kaso or "Nkah" in Congo, belongs to the Euphorbiaceae family. It is a rainforest plant that can also be found in shrubs in the Republic of Congo, in the wild. Its seeds contain almonds rich in fat (47.15%), protein (33.95%), with a moisture content of 4%. The carbohydrate content is relatively low (7.77%). The fibers and the ashes represent respectively: 0.15% and 9.14%. Among the minerals identified are: Phosphorus: 1.46%, Iron: 0.01%, Calcium: 1.57%, Magnesium: 0.19% and Nitrogen: 5.45%. The calculated energy value is 591.23 Kcal / 100g.
