Pistachio shell powder supported nano-zerovalent copper (ZVC@PS) material prepared by borohydride reduction was characterized using SEM, FTIR, XRD, TGA/DTA, BET, and XPS. XPS revealed the to consist of a core-shell structure with CuO Cu(0) core particle size 40–100 nm spherical morphology aggregated on PS biomass. ZVC@PS found contain 39% (w/w %) Cu onto pistachio Batch sorption Cr(VI) from aqu...

In the current study, we investigated role of camel milk and pistachio in muscle growth rats with cancer-induced sarcopenia. Female Sprague Dawley weighing 180 – 200 grams were selected for a bioefficacy trial 13 weeks divided into four groups: G1 (negative control), G2 (positive G3 (normal diet + milk), G4 based product). Tumors induced by administering 50 mg/kg 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene ...

Pathogenicity and anastomosis groups of seven Rhizoctonia-like isolates obtained from infected pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) seedlings were determined, in the central district Siirt province at Southeast Anatolia Region Turkey. Browning on crown root collected saplings drying plants observed. In pathogenicity test, most virulent isolate was Rs2 with a disease severity 93.75%. The group this isol...

A model of the ecological niche nut fruit Pistacia vera has been developed based on known locations in Central Asia and an analysis abiotic environmental variables order to map out area optimal conditions for both wild domesticated forms. The reveals a much larger suitability species than it presently occupies. list key their ranges are compared with values those which have gathered from experi...

Agricultural products export has main role among non-oil exports and pistachio is the most important exportable agricultural product in Iran. In this research we tried to deal with the most important weak and strong spots, opportunities and threats facing the advertisement of exporting pistachio in Kerman province. This has been done with the usage of factor analysis (PFA) in combination with S...

Background: The pistachio is a nut produced by about 20 species of shrub. Present-day studies show the health benefits of pistachio in preventing or treating diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), cancer, multiple sclerosis (MS), and erectile dysfunction. Materials and Methods: MEDLINE / PubMed, and Google Scholar databases were searched using the keywords of Pistacia ver...

Pistachio is one of the most important horticultural products of Iran with special economic importance. In average 70% of Iran pistachio are exported. Aflatoxin is secondary metabolites of fungus such as Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus. If favorite condition is prepared for stabilization of fungi spores producing Aflatoxin, the first pistachio contamination to Aflatoxin occurs in orchard....

In this study, the effects of coatings made of chitosan (Chi) incorporating thyme essential oil (TEO) on lipid oxidation and changing color indexes of walnut kernels were investigated. Chi: pure, in accompany with TEO at concentrations of 500 and 1000 microliter per liter, in an aqueous coating solution, with different packaging methods: Gunny sack, polypropylene and active packaging, compared ...

in the present study, competitiveness of iranian pistachio exports and competitor countries in  the world market are studied. pistachio export advantage using indices of revealed comparative advantage (rca) approach and vector error correction model(vecm) based on  agricultural and non-petroleum export commodity basket were investigated separately. the results showed that iran has a comparative...
