Coconut inflorescence sap (CIS) is sweet, oyster-white and translucent and was reported to be highly nutritive and a good digestive agent. The chemical composition changes including total sugar, reducing sugar, ethanol, total acidity, volatile acid, amino acid, vitamin C and total phenolic contents of postharvest coconut inflorescence sap (PCIS) were investigated during a 12-day natural ferment...

the nutritive value of grass pea (lathyrus sativus l.) hay was evaluated based on its chemical composition, gas production, fractioning of protein in cncps and afrc systems, metabolizable energy (me), rumen degradability through in situ technique and in vitro digestibility through tilley and terry method. the crude protein (cp), neutral detergent fiber (ndf) and acid detergent fiber (adf) value...

The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of four different mineral liners (clay, bentonite, kaoline, and zeolite) which could be utilized to prevent the transport of phenolic compounds to groundwater through alternative liner systems. Four laboratory-scale HDPE reactors with 80 cm height and 40 cm inner diameter were operated for a period of 180 days. Results indicated that the t...

In the research it was examined the changes in total phenolic contents and seven major phenolic compounds (gallic acids, +(−) catechin, catechol, Chlorogenic acid, o-coumaric acid, rutin and quercetin) of two litchi cultivars (Purbi and Bedana) shoot tips and fruits (for zygotic embryos) collected in different months, in order to determine their effects on the explants browning during establish...

By-products obtained from winemaking processes still contain large amounts of phenolic compounds, especially phenolic acids, flavanols, flavonols, stilbenes, and flavonoids. Enzymatic hydrolysis was used for determination and characterization of phenolic acids, flavanols, flavonols, and stilbenes. Characterization of the flavonoids was achieved using acid hydrolysis with 0.1% hydrochloric acid....

conclusions results have shown that a. spicigera eo before and after flowering has antioxidant properties and therefore can be used in combination with other preservatives to protect food materials against a variety of oxidative systems. background essential oils (eo), also called volatile odoriferous oil, are aromatic oily liquids extracted from different parts of plants. in general, the const...
