The aims of the present work were to study the composition of almond and pistachio juices processing by-products and their use in cookies formulation. These by-products have relatively high carbohydrate, protein, fat, calcium and magnesium contents. There were slight difference (p>0.05) in essential amino acid contents between almond by-products and pistachio by-products and also both juices pr...

Various species of phytopathogenic Botryosphaeriaceae were identified previously from pistachio trees worldwide. Disease symptoms caused by pathogens in Botryosphaeriaceae on pistachio include panicle and shoot blight, leaf defoliation, fruit discoloration and decay. In this study species of Botryosphaeriaceae were collected from blighted pistachio shoots in Arizona, USA, and Greece. The aims o...

the marketing services and marketing margin of pistachio is reviewed as an agricultural product for export. about 90 percent of pistachio production is in kerman province, from which 60 percent is in rafsanjan. the results show that the share of the country in the world pistachio market is decreased in the last 10 years. the main problems for marketing are storing, packing and transporting.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of processing protein meals by tannin extracted from pistachio by-product on apparent total tract digestibility, ruminal fermentation and performance of dairy cows. For tannin extraction, one kilogram of sun-dried pistachio by-products was immersed in four liters of water for 48 h. Then, pistachio by-products were removed from the water and ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of tannic acid (TA) and pistachio by-product tannin extract (PBE) on N utilization and efficiency of microbial nitrogen synthesis (EMNS) in Saanen dairy goats. The experimental design was a change over design with three treatments and three periods using six mid lactation multiparous dairy goats. Tannic acid solution and PBE were added to fresh ...

The pistachio psylla, Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt and Lauterer (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) is a major pest of pistachio trees, Pistacia vera L. (Sapindalis: Anacardiaceae) throughout pistachio-producing regions in Iran. Different density levels of A. pistaciae nymphs were maintained on pistachio trees by different insecticide dosages to evaluate the relationship between nymph density and yield l...

BACKGROUND Cashew nut, pistachio nut and mango belong to the Anacardiaceae family and are botanically related. Therefore, cashew nut sensitised children are frequently advised to eliminate cashew nuts and pistachio nuts from their diet. The 'Improvement of Diagnostic mEthods for ALlergy assessment (IDEAL trial number NTR3572) study showed that cashew nut sensitised children were co-sensitised t...

In the current study, we investigated role of camel milk and pistachio in muscle growth rats with cancer-induced sarcopenia. Female Sprague Dawley weighing 180 – 200 grams were selected for a bioefficacy trial 13 weeks divided into four groups: G1 (negative control), G2 (positive G3 (normal diet + milk), G4 based product). Tumors induced by administering 50 mg/kg 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene ...

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of treated protein supplements with tannin extracted from pistachio by-product (P-PB) on in vitro gas production using fistulated sheep. One portion of P-PB was mixed with four portions of water for 48 h. The extracted product was sprayed on soybean meal (SBM) or canola meal (CM) with an equal ratio (1:1 v/w) and dried in the shade. The expe...
