Background and Objectives: Use of aloe vera gel in dairy industries is important for increasing quality of dairy products. In the present study, effects of aloe vera gel with inulin and whey powder on survival of probiotic bacteria, rheological and sensory characteristics of yogurt were investigated. Materials and Methods: Low-fat (1.5%) probiotic yogurts were prepared from pasteurized milks, ...

In this research the effect of conventional and ohmic pasteurization and storage time at different temperatures on some bioactive components of Aloe vera gel juice was investigated. Aloe vera gel juice was pasteurized conventionally and ohmically at 90 ºC for 1 min. The effect of pasteurization on vitamin C, total phenolic content  and juice color was evaluated. The samples pasteurized conv...

The effect of aqueous solutions of ascorbic acid (AA) on the rancidity development in Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) fillets during frozen storage was studied. Cobia fillets were treated with ascorbic acid (AA 0.25% and AA 0.5%) then stored at -18°C up to 6 months. Rancidity development was measured by several biochemical indices including free fatty acids (FFA), peroxide value (PV), and thiobarb...

In this paper, the annual and economic performance of an integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) with indirect energy storage tanks is investigated. The study includes four scenarios, in which the combined cycle performance was studied exclusively in the first scenario. In the second scenario, the integrated solar combined cycle (ISCC) was examined, and the use of supplementary firing instead of...

We investigate the impact of cyclic competition on pattern formation in the rock-paper-scissors game. By separately considering random and prepared initial conditions, we observe a critical influence of the competition rate p on the stability of spiral waves and on the emergence of biodiversity. In particular, while increasing values of p promote biodiversity, they may act detrimentally on spat...

The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of free and microencapsulated Ziziphora clinopodioides Essential Oil (ZEO) and Nisin individually and in combinationon sensory characteristic and shelf life of fish burger during 20 days of storage at 4±1˚C. Fish burgers were prepared and treated with free and microencapsulated form of ZEO and Nisin in 15 treatments and evaluated by 20...

the effect of ca, zn and b foliar application (five g l-1) and their mixed applications as well as two harvest dates (1st and 15st of august) on ppo activity of two commercial asian pears (‘ks’9 and ‘ks’13) fruits at the time of harvest and during storage were investigated. results showed that the ppo activity increased from harvest time to three months after storage and then decreased. during ...

the use of natural extracts as one of good antioxidant source is increasing to improve fish quality. the present study aims at investigating antioxidant effect of orange peel extract on the quality of common carp fillet during refrigerated storage (4°c). fish fillets were treated by 0, 1 and 5 % concentration of orange peel extract, packed and then stored in refrigerator. chemical parameters (p...
