对热带落叶乔木四翅树的干果进行了营养品质评价。果皮、果肉和种子含有不同数量的营养素，如蛋白质、脂质和矿物质，这些营养素与红辣椒、洋葱、咖喱和生姜等流行香料相当，有些甚至更高。果壳的粗纤维含量是值得注意的，可以被认为是这种营养因子的良好来源。粗脂肪的分布指示了香料香气的位置，有助于提高果实的加工和利用价值。
The nutritional quality of the dry fruit of Tetrapleura tetraptera, a tropical deciduous forest tree with characteristic fruits, used as a spice, was assessed. The fruit shell, fruit pulp and seed contained varying amounts of nutrients such as protein, lipids and minerals, which were comparable and some were even higher than popular spices such as red pepper, onion, curry and ginger. The crude fibre content of the fruit shell was noteworthy and can be considered a good source of this nutritional factor. The distribution of crude lipids which indicated the location of the aroma of the spice, would enhance the processing of the fruit and improve its use.
