A new computational approach for the determination of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging activity (DPPH-RSA) in food is reported, based on the concept of machine learning. Trolox standard was mix with DPPH at different concentrations to produce different colors from purple to yellow. Artificial neural network (ANN) was trained on a typical set of images of the DPPH radical re...

The role of ethylene in light control of leaf abscission im mung bean, Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek cv Jumbo, cuttings was examined. While red light inhibits and far-red light promotes loss of break strength in abscission zones as compared with dark controls, changes in the rate of abscission could not be associated with changes in the rate of ethylene production. Reducing ethylene synthesis in t...

Pe]ypheno] oxidase (monophenol dLhydrexyphenylalanine' oxygen ox]doTeductase/ EC 1 14.1S t; PPO) hus been found in most higher plunts. although its ro]e has not yet becn clearly cstab]]shed. When the extracts frem var]ous organs of' mung bean seedlings were unalyzecl by :soelectric f'ocustng, several bancls of PPO ttet]vity were dctectcd. Among these isozyrnes, the one with pl S,4 showed the hi...

Drought is one of the critical conditions for growth and productivity many crops including mung bean (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek). Screening genotypes variations suitable strategies evaluating crop adaptability global food security. In this context, study investigated physiological biochemical responses four drought tolerant (BARI Mung-8, BMX-08010-2, BMX-010015, BMX-08009-7), sensitive Mung-1, B...

Peroxisomes from mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) hypocotyls catalyze, in the presence of branched-chain 2-oxo fatty acid, CoASH and NAD, the release of CO(2), and the formation of NADH and acyl-CoA. The acyl-CoA contains one carbon atom less than the branched-chain 2-oxo fatty acid and serves as substrate for the peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase. CO(2) release, NADH and acyl-CoA formation occur in 1:1...

This research shows the dependence of number average degree of polymerization (DPn) of mung bean starch (MBS) on starch slurry concentration, acid/starch slurry ratio, time and temperature in acid modification process. Optimizing these factors to earn as low as possible DPn was evaluated by using the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with reduced Central Composite Face-Centered (reduced CCF) m...

A procedure was developed for the partial purification of succinate dehydrogenase from mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) hypocotyls and soybean (Glycine max [L] Merr. v. Ransom) cotyledons. The procedure utilized a Triton X-100 extraction followed by ammonium sulfate precipitation. The final fraction was enriched in two polypeptides with approximate molecular weights of 67,000 and 30,000 daltons, ex...

The effects of kaempferol on the oxidative and phosphorylative properties of plant mitochondria from potato tubers and etiolated mung bean (Phaseolus aureus Roxb.) hypocotyls were investigated. Kaempferol inhibited the state 3 oxidation rate of malate, NADH, and succinate, but was without effect on the ascorbate-tetramethyl p-phenylenediamine oxidation rate. The inhibition was almost the same w...

Flesh of the Quail Sweet, bland, non-poisonous. Not to be eaten before the month of May, eaten with pig’s liver it will cause blackheads, with mushrooms one develops haemorrhoids. A visceral tonic and vitalizer. Makes the bones and muscles strong and able to endure cold and heat. It relieves inflammation. With ginger and red mung bean it cures diarrhoea and dysentery. Fried in cream it is fatte...
