consumption of food containing cholesterol and saturated fatty acids such as butter can increase serum cholesterol and cause cardiovascular diseases. therefore many efforts have been done for decreasing these constituents in foods. in this study, hazelnut and walnut powders were added to butter samples in amounts of 0 (not enriched sample), 10, 20 and 30% for evaluation of chemical characterist...

The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of surfactant composition on the physical properties of nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) containing wheat germ oil (WGO) and to investigate the influence of both surfactant composition and pH on the oxidative stability of WGO encapsulated within the NLCs. The results showed that the smallest particle size (52.7 nm) was related to the NLC with t...

effect of methanolic leaf extract of moringa oleifera for the stabilization of butter oil with modified fatty acid profile at ambient temperature was investigated. twelve sahiwal cows of first and early lactation were randomly stratified into two groups in a completely randomized design and fatty acid profile of milk fat was modified by feeding 300 grams calcium salts of fatty acids (per cow pe...

in this study, the oil yield, fatty acid (fa) composition and the physicochemical and quality characteristics of salvia macrosiphon crude seed oil were determined. the main fatty acids ranked in the following order of abundance: α- linolenic acid> linoleic acid> oleic acid. the n3 /n6 fa ratio and polyunsaturated fa/ saturated fa ratio were 1.6 and 7.23, respectively. the fa composition reveale...

earliness and drought escape are as a primary strategy for plant adaptation in regions that plants are subjected to terminal drought stress. plants react to drought through morphological changes and alteration in physiological behavior. accordingly, two separate experiments to assess the response of yield and morphophysiological characteristics of earliness chickpea genotypes to drought stress ...

study area is located in west of iran with relatively rough topography. lithologic units in the region belong from jurassic and cretaccous till recent era. the study area of the alvand mountain region is related to the tectonic zone of the sanandaj-sirjan region and the area dominant neo-tectonic regime appears to be compressional-extensional type. one of the identification tools to find out th...

abstract the effect of land use type on soil functioning within an ecosystem can be assessed and monitored using soil quality attributes. such studies, which are carried out to create a balance between the biological production and the maintenance and improvement of land resource quality, provide a framework for land degradation control and also for identification of sustainable management. in ...

antioxidant active packaging is one of the active packaging that prevents of lipid oxidation by releasing antioxidant during storage of food. in recent years the use of natural antioxidant instead of the synthetic variety in these packaging has been considered. the aim of this study was evaluating the performance of polymeric film coated with natural antioxidant (rosemary extract) to prevent li...
