citrus fruits contain numerous nutrients and secondary metabolites including sugars, vitamin c, flavonoids and phenols which have high antioxidant activity and nutritional value. factors such as cultivar, type of stock and fruit position affect the amount of these compounds. hence in this study the amount of sucrose, glucose, total sugar, vitamin c, flavonoids and phenols in pulp, mesocarp and ...

In this paper we present a first version of LexO, a collaborative editor of multilingual lexica and termino-ontological resources. It is based on the lemon model, and aims at supporting lexicographers and terminologists in their work. Although the development of LexO is still ongoing, the editor is already being used within two research projects in the field of Computational Linguistics applied...

Assam lemon (Citrus Limon L. Burmf) fruits are acidic fruits of family Rutaceae and contain healthy nutritional content that are important for the body. Squash was formulated and prepared using Assam lemon. The acceptability responses of the panelists were encouraging for an initial period of 15 days. The product scored better than the commercial ones, mainly due to the freshness of the product...

The article presents the adaptation of the lemon model (a model for lexica as RDF data) for a multilingual and multi-alphabetical lexicon of Old Occitan medico-botanical terminology. The lexicon is the core component of an ontology-based information system that will be constructed and implemented within the DFG-funded project "Dictionnaire de Termes Médico-botaniques de l’Ancien Occitan" (DiTMA...

Metalaxyl significantly reduced population of Pratylenchus coffeae, Radopholus similis, and Tylenchulus semipenetrans in roots of Citrus limon (rough lemon) under greenhouse conditions. Postinoculation treatment of rough lemon seedlings was not as effective i n reducing nematode populations as was treatment before inoculation. Fewer nematodes infected metalaxyl-treated roots than nontreated roo...

Allergic rhinitis (often coexisting with allergic conjunctivitis) is a highly prevalent, chronic, inflammatory disease. Most cases are not extraordinary; however, they may result in significant impairment in quality of life of patients, as well as in economical damage for both health-care system and patients. This case report describes the experiences of a middle-aged woman with the illness, wh...

Microwave-assisted extraction of pectin from lemon peels by using ionic liquid as alternative solvent was investigated. The extracted pectin was detected by Fourier transform infrared spectra. The extraction conditions were optimized through the different experiments in conjunction with the response surface methodology. A pectin yield of 24.68 % was obtained under the optimal parameters: the ex...

lemon is one of the most important citrus fruit and is consumed as fresh and dry. in this study the effect of fruit moisture content on the size, sphericity, geometric mean diameters and kernel density were studied. the bulk density and porosity were also evaluated in three different arrangements. airflow resistance is a fundamental parameter for designing an efficient drying and aeration syste...

The composition of the essential oils of Thymus pulegioides L. plants growing wild in Vilnius district (Lithuania) with "ester", lemon and carvacrol (phenol) odours were collected in one location and investigated by GC, GC/MS and IR-spectroscopy. The essential oils with lemon and carvacrol odour belong to corresponding known citral-geraniol and carvacrol chemotypes. The essential oil of plants ...
