The present study was focused to evaluate the phytochemical screening and biochemical estimation of ethanolic aqueous extracts edible nuts Arachis hypogea, Anacardium occidentale, Prunus dulcis Juglans regia. showed presence carbohydrate, protein, phenol tannin, flavonoid, glycoside, steroid, alkaloid in all studied nuts. quantification A. hypogeae, P. J. regia were performed determine total am...

Th e chemical composition and nutritional value of a wild edible ectomycorrhizal mushroom from southwestern Anatolia, Tricholoma anatolicum, were analyzed. Moisture, crude oil, protein, ash, total carbohydrate content, and mineral composition of the mushrooms studied, including Fe, Na, K, Zn, Cu, Ca, Cd, and Pb, were determined. Th e energy values of the samples were also calculated. Th e analy...

In this study we introduce the starch-recognising carbohydrate binding module family 20 (CBM20) from Aspergillus niger for screening biological variations in starch molecular structure using high throughput carbohydrate microarray technology. Defined linear, branched and phosphorylated maltooligosaccharides, pure starch samples including a variety of different structures with variations in the ...

Bovine thyroglobulin has been subjected to sequential glycohydrolase treatment in order to define further the components of the carbohydrate chain which are important in binding of the glycoprotein to bovine thyroid membranes. Preparations of asialoagalactothyroglobulin exhibit the best binding, suggesting that exposed N-acetylglucosamine residues on the B carbohydrate chain of thyroglobulin pl...

To investigate the role of dietary components in the hyperinsulinaemia of the obese hyperglycaemic (ob/ob) syndrome, plasma insulin responses to fasting and refeeding were examined in Aston ob/ob mice supplied with standard diet, non-digestible-carbohydrate test food, and isoenergetic test foods from which either carbohydrate, protein or fat was omitted. During fasting, plasma insulin concentra...

this research was carried out to determine the chilling and heat requirements of grapevine cultivars(rotabi, siah shiraz and yaguti) and carbohydrate and hormones changes in chilled cuttings. uniform cuttings of above mentioned cultivars were harvested when leaves were abscised in autumn, and then transferred to refrigerator (2˚c). cuttingswere subjected to 0 (unchilled control), 100, 200, 300,...

two field experiments were conducted at the research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran during 2009-2010 and 2010-2011, to evaluate the response of fennel (foeniculum vulgare l.) landraces to limited irrigation. experiments were arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design in three replications with irrigation treatments (irrigation after 60, 90, ...

Edible fungi such as mushrooms are highly perishable and deteriorate few days after harvest due to its high moisture content and inability to maintain their physiological status. In this study, the effect of packaging materials on the nutritional composition of mushroom cultivated from cassava peels was investigated. Mushroom samples were dried at 50°C in a cabinet dryer for 8 h. The dried mush...

INTRODUCTION Low carbohydrate diets are again in the spotlight and have been identified as particularly appropriate for people with type 2 diabetes. There is confusion amongst both health professionals and people with diabetes about the suitability of these diets. This review aims to provide an overview of the latest evidence and to explore the role of low carbohydrate diets for people with typ...
