Apple products have been shown to prevent skin, mammary gland and colon carcinogenesis in animal models. Epidemiological observations indicate that regular consumption of one or more apples a day may reduce the risk for lung and colon cancer. The present study investigated the potential effects of apples on fasting blood sugar and lipid parameters in Type II diabetics’ patients.Study includes 9...

The enzymatic degradation of lignocellulosic biomass such as apple pomace is a complex process influenced by a number of hydrolysis conditions. Predicting optimal conditions, including enzyme and substrate concentration, temperature and pH can improve conversion efficiency. In this study, the production of sugar monomers from apple pomace using commercial enzyme preparations, Celluclast 1.5L, V...

Apple pomace, a waste product from the apple juice industry is a potential feedstock for biofuel and biorefinery chemical production. Optimisation of hydrolysis conditions for apple pomace hydrolysis using Viscozyme L and Celluclast 1.5L was investigated using 1 L reaction volumes. The effects of temperature, pH, β-glucosidase supplementation and substrate feeding regimes were determined. Hydro...

Gout and COVID-19 have been of global concerns. One the drugs for gout is allopurinol that acts as a xanthin oxidase inhibitor (XOI). However, this drug has side effects, so we need safer from herbal sources such sugar apple. Sugar apple ethanol extract can act XOI, but activity steeping with hot water not known. Besides, several compounds are also reported to be active anti-viruses, their cate...

Attraction of adult codling moths, Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), to sweet baits has been well documented. However, beneficial effects of sugar feeding on moth fitness have not been demonstrated. Longevity, fecundity, and egg fertility were examined for female/male pairs of moths maintained with the following food regimens: water, sucrose water, honey water, apple juice, apple...

Metabolome analyses by NMR spectroscopy can be used in quality control by generating unique fingerprints of different species. Hundreds of components and their variation between different samples can be analyzed in a few minutes/hours with high accuracy and low cost of sample preparation. Here, apple peel and pulp extracts of a variety of apple cultivars were studied to assess their suitability...

in this study, the effect of carbon and nitrogen sources, on production of yeast biomass was determined as well as the efficacy of various formulations of candida membranifaciens to decrease blue mold on apple. the media containing sugar cane molasses as carbon sources caused more yeast growth than the media supplemented with permeate powder. yeast extract as nitrogen source produced higher bio...

Fourier Transform mid-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-MIR) shared with multivariate statistics was applied for the quantitative analysis of total sugar in 9 processed commercial fruit juices. PLSR (Partial least-squares regression) was used to generate calibration models that were cross-validated. As an analytical technique, the suitability of FTIR in mid-range (4000-1cm-4001cm) is investigates in th...

is added to grapefruit pulp the pulp acts as a bland filler and makes an apple pie. If peach is added it makes a peach pie. Citric acid, sugar and peel oil give excellent orange, grapefruit and tangerine jams. A little' peel oil, sunset yellow, No. 6 and sugar makes a good ice cream mix. Add more sugar and you have a good sundae topping. Cake fillings were made from the jams but they gave troub...

Value We used the following juices, listed in roughly decreasing order of preference (associated colors in parenthesis): high-sugar lemon Kool-Aid (dark yellow), grape juice (bright green), fruit punch (magenta), apple juice (diluted to 1/2 with water, dark green), cranberry juice (diluted to 1/3 or 1/4 with water, pink), water (white), milk (red), peppermint tea (bright blue), tea (light brown...
