Biomass-based pellet is an important source of renewable energy. In this study, to obtain the high-quality fuel via densification pruned branches fruit trees, we investigated optimization blending ratios for different raw materials using from jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), which a widely distributed waste biomass resource in China. Through characterization and pellets, effects on storage, tran...

objectives: ziziphus jujube (jujube) plant has exhibited numerous medicinal and pharmacological properties including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. this study was carried out to investigate its anti-cancer and pro-apoptotic abilities in human cervical and breast cancer cells in vitro. materials and methods: the cervical ov2008 and breast mcf-7 cancer cells were incubated with differ...

Jujube or ber (Ziziphus spp.) is one of the most important fruit crops India’s arid and semi-arid regions because its high adaptability to resource constraints hot (semi)arid region. a rich source minerals, vitamins dietary antioxidants zone dwellers, where it known as poor man’s apple. Given present rising trends in discovering exploiting plant-based health-promoting compounds, imperative know...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi constitute promising biofertilizers for the deployment of a sustainable agriculture. However, evaluation benefits in field is poorly documented, notably fruit tree orchards, and concerns exclusively growth performance nutrition. Here, we evaluated persistence beneficial effects AM fungal inoculation on two jujube (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.) cultivars (Tasset Gol...

Accepted: 24/12/2014 Abstract A study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of Indian jujube pulp on the quality attributes of chicken sausages incorporated at 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% level (replacing lean meat) into the formulation of chicken sausages. The proximate, physico-chemical and sensory properties of sausages were analyzed. Among the different proximate and physicochemical parameters, a s...

The importance of medicinal plant has been emphasized from time to time. It is believed that the drug of natural origin shall play an important role in health care particularly in rural areas of India. Ziziphus mauritiana belongs to family Rhamnaceae and commonly known as Indian jujube or ber .The leaves are alternate and elliptic. Flowers are small and bisexual .The leaves are about 2.5 – 3.2 ...

objective(s):the neuroprotective effect offruit aqueous extract of ziziphus jujuba lam on glucose-induced neurotoxicity in pc12 cells as an appropriate in vitro model of diabetic neuropathy was investigated. materials and methods: cell viability was determined by the mtt assay. cellular reactive oxygen species (ros) generation was measured by dcfh-da analysis. cleaved caspase-3, a biochemical p...
