This study was carried out to determine the effects of acetic acid, hot water, and cold sand stratification scarification at different periods on seed germination carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) in Salah Alden province. The seeds were collected from Kirkuk province area September 2016. Carob stratified not treated by soaking glacial acid for 20, 40, 60, 120 min. lab temperature (25oC). Hot water (...

It has been reported that caroubin, a protein mixture obtained from carob seeds, has rheological properties similar to those of gluten. Comparative studies of the effects of hydration and temperature on caroubin and gluten were carried out with the aid of NMR, FTIR, scanning electron microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry techniques. The results show that caroubin has a more ordered ...

The Carob is the fru it of an evergreen (Ceratonia Siliqua L.) cult ivated in the Mediterranean area. The pulp represents 90% of the fruit. It has a high content of sugars and tannins and low contents of protein and fat. Carob powder or syrup is used as an ingredient in cakes and cookies and chocolate substitute. Carob powder contained high levels of carbohydrates (75.92%), (6.34% protein) and ...

Carob is botanically called as Ceratonia siliqua and belongs to the Legumes family. The fruit derived from hermaphrodite trees hard in shape. carob contains high sugar contents pulp, fat seed minerals like potassium, calcium, phosphorus are present pods. Polyphenols antioxidants abundant leaves It can be used for enhancing human health due its nutritional profile. gum pharmaceutical industry fo...

Solid-state (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of the following intact plant tissues were recorded by the crosspolarization magic-angle spinning technique: celery (Apium graveolens L.) collenchyma; carob bean (Ceratonia siliqua L.), fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.), and nasturtium (Tropaeolum majus L.) endosperm; and lupin (Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl.) seed cotyledons. All th...

Extracts from pods and leaves of carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) were tested for their ability to inhibit cell proliferation of mouse hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (T1). The two extracts showed a marked alteration of T1 cell proliferation in a dose-related fashion reaching the maximal effect at 1 mg/ml. Moreover, we demonstrated that leaf and pod extracts were able to induce apoptosis in T1 c...

OBJECTIVE This study was undertaken to investigate the anti-inflammatory role of fennel, carob, doum and mixture of them in improving the renal dysfunction induced in rats by the cyclosporine. DESIGN Sixty female albino rats were divided into six groups: healthy control rats, cyclosporine injected rats (positive control), other groups were injected by cyclosporine for 7 days and then diet was...
