background: hydroxymethylfurfural (hmf) is a common maillard reaction product directly formed from dehydration of sugars under acidic conditions during heating and storage in carbohydrate rich foods. the aim of the present study was to detect and quantify the amount of hmf in date syrup by hplc method. in addition, the amount of hmf in date syrup produced by traditional and industrial methods w...

The potential use of date syrup, for the production of carotenoids by Rhodotorula glutinisin batch fermentation process, was investigated during 7 days. The results revealed that carbon (glucose or date syrup) and nitrogen sources [yeast extract, (NH4)2SO4 and NH4NO3] had a significant influence on biomass and carotenoid production. Maximum yield of total carotenoid production (7.94 mg/L) with ...

The purpose of this study was to utilize low quality date syrup, a rich and available source of nutrient in Iran, for the production of bacterial cellulose using Gluconacetobacter xylinus. Static batch fermentationfor the purpose of cellulose production by G. xylinus (PTCC, 1734) was studied using low quality date syrupand sucrose solution (Bx. 10%) as fermentation media at 28°C. Re...

ultrafiltration (uf) was used for decolorization of an industrial iranian date syrup. experimental results were obtained by using two different concentrations of the date syrup (40 and 50 °brix) and two different membrane pore sizes (15-20 and 30-50 kda molecular weight cut-off values) under different trans-membrane pressures (tmp: 40, 70, 110 and 150 psi). the membrane with a pore size of 15-2...

abstract in this study the possibility of utilizing date syrup as a sugar replacer in soft ice-cream was investigated. for this purpose control sample was formulated based on iranian ice- cream standard. data syrup which produced from third grade kabkab dates, replaced sucrose in four levels (25, 50, 75 and 100%). physical properties including overrun, viscosity and freezing point (drawing temp...

Date syrup powder is a new product which can be used as sugar substitute. First, the date syrupwas spread out on a foil and placed in the oven at 60°C for 24 hours. Date syrup was separated from the foil andgrinded. 2% agar and 2% starch were added and syrup with agar and starch that was in a lumpy shape werecrushed and spread on the foil and placed at 60°C for 24 hours. Powdered granules, agar...

Xanthomonas campestris was used for producing xanthan gum using date syrup, prepared from low quality dates, as a substrate. Fermentation was carried out with date syrup and sucrose syrup at 28 ˚C and pH 6.8 in a rotary benmarin shaker (240 rpm). The effect of fermentation period (24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h) on xanthan gum production was studied. The results showed that EPS concentration increase...

date fruit, containing a substantial amount of carbohydrates is considered as an important agricultural product in iran. in this research, the objective was the use date fruit wastes to produce bioethanol. for better understanding of the fermentation process the changes in sugar content, as well as the amount of produced bioethanol and carbon dioxide were periodically measured and modeled while...

abstract halwa-ardeh is a traditional food in iran and middle east countries, which is produced by crushing the dehulled sesame seeds and then mixing with a proper sweetener such as grape concentrate, date syrup, and honey. the oil content of this product is on the average of 57-65% (w/w). in this research, the effect of different levels of fat substitutes including guar gum (of 0.1, 0.15 and 0...
