✦ Synopsis
Tomato seeds and skin wastes contain considerable amounts of protein (16.6, 5.7 x) respectively. After protein hydrolysis from both seeds and peels the presence of 17 amino acids was stated. The amino acid scores (chemical scores) of tomato pomace were calculated using the FAOjWHO provisional amino acid scoring pattern and reasonable biological value was confirmed. The essential amino acid content and biological value of seed proteins are higher than that of skin proteins. Fe, Zn, Cu and Mn in seeds and peels were predominant among the micro-minerals. K and P were found to be present in greater quantities than Na in seeds and peels.
