in order to alleviate chilling injury in pomegranate (punica granatum) cv. rabab due to cold storage, the fruits were dipped in 0.7, 1.4 and 2 mm of salicylic acid (sa) for 10 min. after 1, 2 and 3 months of storage at 2°c, the fruits were tested for chilling injury (ci) as well as some biochemical parameters. the results revealed that with increase in storage time, ci and ion leakage (il) incr...

the effects of pasteurization, storage time and temperature on proteolysis of milk were evaluated. two replicates of each of raw and pasteurized milk were assigned to three temperatures (5, 16 and 25 ?c) and 3 storage periods (1, 2 and 3 day) in a 2×3×3 full factorial design. for all the samples, ph and indices of proteolysis were determined. the effect of all the three main factors (pasteuriza...

The effect of delayed icing on the quality of banana shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) was investigated by determining sensory, physicochemical (pH, TVB-N and WHC), microbial (TMC, total mesophilic counts and TPC, total psychrophilic counts) and microstructure aspects over 20 days during ice storage. The fresh shrimp stored in the immediately iced after caught (lot I) were organoleptically ac...

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...

external and internal changes in fruits during storage time are affected by the various factors that some of them can by studied by measuring the qualitative parameters (physical and mechanical). the effects of storage time on some physical and mechanical properties of valencia orange were investigated. the experiment was performed as factorial based on completely randomized design. analysis of...

Background: Short time preservation of semen is common in animals (e.g. horse or pig etc…) which their sperm in known as freezing sensitive sperm. It also may use for short transportation of other species to be cryopreserved or use in AI or IVF programs. The aim of the present study was to evaluate effects of duration of cool storage on goat epididymal sperm. Materials and Methods: Total number...

Oils extracted from plants have been used since ancient times and in many cultures .frying oils are used in many countries all around the world including Iran. Therefore it is of great importance to ensure the safety of these food products which are usually delivered in polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. This study has investigated the effect of storage time and temperature on the migrat...
