Background: Chicken fillets contain essential amino acids besides many minerals and vitamins, which are necessary for maintaining life and promoting growth. Moreover, it is low in calories and cholesterol; therefore, it can be used for feeding infants, young children, and some patients. Methods: Chicken fillets were initially coated by dipping in different concentrations of chitosan (1.0%, 1.5...

nitrogen components of yoghurt milk samples and resulting probiotic set yoghurt weredetermined. analyses included total nitrogen (tn), non-casein nitrogen (ncn), non-proteinnitrogen (npn), casein nitrogen (cn) and proteolysis index (pi). yoghurt samples wereanalyzed 1, 7, 14 and 21days after production and storage at 5±1°c. tn, cn and pi contentsof yoghurt milk samples with high somatic cell sc...

We examined the effectiveness of intermittent warming (IW), hot water (HW), salicylic acid (SA), and calcium chloride (CaCl2) on the postharvest life of pomegranate fruit cv. ‘Shishe-Kab’ and extending fruit shelf life during cold storage (3°C). Fruit were subjected to cycles of 1 d at 17 ± 1°C every 6 d of storage at 3°C under IW conditions. Pre-storage treatments were HW (50°C) for 3 min, SA ...

effect of calcium chloride on tomato quality and shelf life of petoearly ch, koral and rio grand tomato cultivars were studied at the agricultural and natural resources research center of west azerbaijan, iran over 2002-2003. a calcium chloride solution in 0,0.5% and 1% concentrations was sprayed on the tomatoes three times. the fruit was harvested at the mature green stage and stored in cold s...

introduction: in iran, the main problem in greenhouse cucumber production and post-harvest shelf life is short due to the application of traditional packaging and storage methods. this research was carried out in order to investigate on the effects of packaging type and chitosan edible coating on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of royal greenhouse cucumber during storage conditi...
