Five strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cultivars were grown in Queensland, Australia to determine whether higher temperatures affect production. Transplants planted on 29 April and data collected growth, marketable yield, fruit weight the incidence of small less than 12 g until 28 October. Additional soluble solids content (SSC) titratable acidity (TA) from 16 September Minimum 2 °C 4 long...

This study evaluated the effects of four different gibberellin-pastes (GAP) on fruit quality and storability niitaka pear in 2014 2015 consecutive years. Pear stalks were treated with dongbu GA gold, nebaekeo, busa, hyeophwa-pastes at 35 37 days after full bloom, respectively. After harvest time, fruits stored 0°C for up to 180 days. In both years, weight was 6.2-21.3% higher GAP-treated than c...

Probiotic beverages made from cereals become interesting in the recent food industries. In this contribution, a fermented teff-based probiotic beverage was produced using whole grain teff flour and co-culture strains of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LPA6) Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LCGG). Then, effect 25 days refrigerated storage on cell viability (LPA6 LCGG), contents sugars, organic ac...

Background: Hyperspectral image analysis is a fast and non-destructive technique that is being used to measure quality attributes of food products. This research investigated the feasibility of predicting internal quality attributes, such as Total Soluble Solids (TSS), pH, Titratable Acidity (TA), and maturity index (TSS/TA); and external quality attributes such as color components (L*, a*, b*)...

In this study some selected chemical properties such as total soluble solids, pH, total acidity, formalin index,  reduced sugar content and ascorbic acid of major sour cherry cultivated grown in different provinces of Iran corresponding were investigated.  Minerals K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result showed...

Introduction: The antimicrobial compounds have attracted attention these days all around the world. Applying essential oils (EOs) as the herbal antimicrobial materials and natural antioxidant are so valuable in the food industry. In this study the effects of Rosmarinus officinalis essential oil (REO) with different phenol contents was investigated on the properties of ...

The study aimed to assess the quality attributes of set yoghurt made from cow's milk preserved by lactoperoxidase system (LPs). Fresh was collected Datto collection center and samples were grouped control LPs activated. Set prepared immediately for controlled samples, but in activated milk, sample kept 9 h at 25 °C ± 2 before made. LP enzyme within after milking adding 1 mg/ml sodium thiocyanat...

The pomegranate fruit is one of the most important horticultural products due to the presence of polyphenolic, antioxidant and anti-fungal compounds. In the present study, morphological and phytochemical compounds diversity was investigated in eight Iranian commercial pomegranate cultivars. Fourteen morphological characters and 10 chemical compounds were measured. Based on PCA analysis the most...
