Pre-cooling is an important step in the post-harvest management of fresh produces. This study was initiated to evaluate effect hydro and cold room pre-cooling on cooling kinetics quality parameters for amla. Amla fruits were cooled using immersion method chlorinated water (200 ppm) at 3, 5, 8℃ temperatures, while Cold Room (CR) done a display-type refrigerator 6℃. Comparative showed highest rat...

The multilocational studies were conducted to evaluate 21 hybrids of tomato in Pratapgarh(Uttar Pradesh), Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) and Burdwan (West Bengal), India during August–February 2015–16 2016–17. Data on four quality traits viz., total soluble solids, titrable acidity, carotene content lycopene estimated. Combined analysis variance (ANOVA) revealed significant effects locations, genotyp...

The objective of this research project was to ascertain the hygiene quality and some physicochemical properties of milk obtained from mares of the Wielkopolska breed at different periods of lactation. Colostrum and milk for analyses were collected on days: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of lactation and afterwards at 15-day intervals up to day 150 of lactation. A significant influence of lactation on levels ...

The objective of this research was to investigate the potential of mid-infrared (MIR) analysis of milk to provide indicators of the udder health status of dairy cows. Mastitis data collected in 49 Walloon herds were merged with test-day data including milk composition and MIR spectra. A total of 1987 healthy lactation and 3204 lactations with at least one mastitis, clinical or sub-clinical, chr...

The effect of two extraction methods of pomegranate juice on its quality and stability was evaluated. The first method consisted of separation of the seeds from fruits and centrifugation. The second method consisted of squeezing fruit halves with an electric lemon squeezer. During a period of 72 hours of cold storage at $4^\circ$ C, the juices were evaluated for the presence of sugars, organic ...

This study aimed to clarify the ability of the buffer systems of saliva to inhibit enamel demineralization after intake of an acid beverage. In the first experiment, titrable acidity tests were carried out. Ten milliliters of saliva stimulated by chewing gum base was obtained from 10 healthy adult subjects and the pH of each saliva sample was measured. The beverages used for the experiment were...

in this study, modified starch was used as a fat replacer in the milk. the fat replacer was manufactured from modified starch such as pre-gelatinized and cross–linked starches. modified starches were manufactured by hydrochloric acid and citric acid treatments from potato and wheat and were added to skim milk at concentrations of 0.15%, 0.30% and 0.45%. viscosity, total solid, fat content, titr...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality strawberries distributed in global markets. We obtained from Egypt, Mexico, Republic Korea, Spain, and United States America (US) being sold Singapore, compared them with Japanese (cv. Benihoppe) using instrumental analysis sensory evaluation. Sensory evaluation conducted by Singaporean assessors. results showed that Egypt were relatively ...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the physical, chemical, and sensory attributes of mango varieties grown under organic farming. Fruits from ten system in Chapada Diamantina region, BA, Brazil, were assessed. The following physical chemical characteristics assessed: fruit mass, pulp yield, color (L*, C*, h*), soluble solids (SS), titratable acidity (TA), total carotenoids, ascorbic acid. acce...

Fruit ripening in response to treatments with propylene, 1-methycyclopropene (1-MCP), and low temperature was characterized in 'Sanuki Gold' kiwifruit, Actinidia chinensis Planch. Propylene treatment immediately induced rapid fruit softening, increased AC-PG (polygalacturonase) and AC-EXP (expansin) mRNA accumulation, and stimulated an increase in the soluble solid concentration (SSC) and a dec...
