Abstract Avocado seed is one of underutilized food waste that contains starch, monounsaturated fatty acids, and has high antioxidant activity. In this research we study the effect ratio modified cassava flour (MOCAF) avocado powder ( Persea americana Mill) on characteristic cookies. The treatment MOCAF with (ASP). data were analyzed by using ANOVA continued DNMRT at 5% level. observation was do...

Complications after tooth extraction include inflammation, bleeding, edema, discomfort, and dry socket. Both nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) steroidal are used to treat inflammation. Using chemo is not without side effects. Avocado seed an herbal substance that needed as alternative therapy reduce wound inflammation caused by extraction. To prove the potential of nano gel (avocado...

Fourteen avocado groves were surveyed by leaf samples, beat samples and sticky cards to assess avocado thrips (AT) and natural enemies (NE) populations in avocado trees in 2003. In the groves, the presence of NE and AT between January and September was only slightly affected by a single abamectin treatment, with Chrysopa sp. being the only NE significantly impacted. In untreated groves, conside...

Accurate pre-harvest estimation of avocado (Persea americana cv. Haas) yield offers a range of benefits to industry and growers. Currently there is no commercial yield monitor available for avocado tree crops and the manual count method used for yield forecasting can be highly inaccurate. Remote sensing using satellite imagery offers a potential means to achieve accurate pre-harvest yield forec...

Bird and arthropod predation is often associated with natural pest control in agricultural landscapes, but the rates of predation may vary with the amount of tree cover or other environmental factors. We examined bird and arthropod predation in three tree-rich and three tree-poor landscapes across southwestern Ethiopia. Within each landscape we selected three tree-rich and three tree-poor homeg...

In this paper, we present avocado, a distributed variant caller built on top of ADAM and Spark. avocado’s goal is to provide both high performance and high accuracy in an open source variant calling framework. To achieve this, we implement both local assembly and pileup-based single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) calling. A key innovation presented in our work involves the development of heurist...

Objective: To investigate the effects of avocado (A)/soybean (S) unsaponifiables on the metabolism of human osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes cultured in alginate beads over 12 days. Methods: Enzymatically isolated OA chondrocytes were cultured in alginate beads in a well defined culture medium for 12 days, in the presence or not of 10 10 M interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß). DNA content was measured using ...

A group of eight new long-chain aliphatic compounds recently isolated from the avocado and some derivatives thereof were tested for antibacterial activity on 13 different species of bacteria and a yeast. Some of these compounds inhibited the growth of microorganisms. 1,2,4-Trihydroxy-n-hepadeca-16-en was found to be the most active, inhibiting certain gram-positive bacteria at 4 mug/ml.

This literature review aimed to determine the effect of giving avocado leaf extract and seeds as an antidiabetic. The study was conducted by choosing experimental research design using animal subjects. results a 9 articles showed that seed antidiabetics were both them potential promising antidiabetic agents. Research on administration positively improved glycemic control reduced diabetes sympto...
