Table 6 Application of jackfruit seed in allied sectors

Production of Red pigments by Monascus purpureus in solid state fermentation

High yield; Due to the substrate's ability to act as a buffer, the pigments' hue is stable throughout a wide range of starting pH

(Babitha et al. 2007)

Bioabsorbents for chromium removal from wastewater

92% of chromium removal

(Giri et al. 2021)

Bio-adsorbent for cadmium removal from wastewater

97% of cadmium removal in 1 h at 120 rpm and pH 7.6

(Prasad et al. 2020)

Biochar for removal of heavy metals

75–98% removal of heavy metal ions

(Khadem et al. 2022)

Modified ion exchange jackfruit seeds resin for removal of selected trace heavy metal ions

Adsorption of lead, copper, and cadmium ions was carried out by resins successfully

(Ndung’u et al. 2021)

Natural coagulant

Reduced 50% turbidity and 70% of suspended solid after water treatment

Reduced 70% turbidity

(Mahmood & Zaki 2019)

(Putra & Sinta 2022)

Supercapacitor electrode from chemically activated carbon of jackfruit seeds

High capacitance and low resistance

(Mathew et al. 2020)

(Chaudhary et al. 2020)

Fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon dots

High solubility in water, high photoluminescence quantum yield, photostability, and longer storage stability and low cytotoxicity

(Raji et al. 2019)

Dye-remover

73% of novacron blue dye was removed within 60 min of contact time

(Miah et al. 2022)

Bio-ethanol

58% of bioethanol was produced under optimum fermentation conditions using Saccharomyces cerevisiae

24% of ethanol using Aspergillus oryzae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae

(Arif et al. 2018)

(Minh 2022)

Corncob waste briquettes

Jackfruit seed adhesives were used to make briquettes with a calorific value of 6241.81 cal g⁻¹

(Ghofur et al. 2021)

Calcium and phosphate ions alternatives for tooth enamel remineralization

Vickers Hardness Number test displayed positive results and jackfruit seed paste was effective in increasing enamel surface hardness

(Nugroho 2021)
