The aim of the study was to assess whether an extra fertilization with manganese, commercial fertilizer Alkalin (N, K and Si), and combined treatment (manganese + Alkalin) affect the chemical composition of chokeberry fruits (Aronia melanocarpa (Michx) Elliot), especially sugar content and the quantity and profile of phenolics. Dry weight, soluble solids, titratable acidity, total sugar, reduci...

Organic fertilizers play a significant role in organic systems and sustainable soil management. In general, organic fertilizers increase soil fertilization so can reduce the negative effects of the excessive use of chemical fertilizers and synthetic man-made fertilizers. This study was carried out in the Medicinal Plants Farm of Shahid Bakeri Higher Education Center of Miandoab during summer 20...

Coastal Bermuda grass (CBG) has been shown to have potential as a biomass feedstock for sugar production. In this study, the effectiveness of ozone pretreatment for CBG to improve the sugar recovery via enzyme hydrolysis was investigated. Raw CBG and autohydrolysistreated CBG were pretreated with ozone at ozone consumption of 1.8 to 26.4 % (w/w) at room temperature. Lignin degradation and hemic...

The aim of this study was to investigate whether the composite photosynthetic bacterial inoculant PS21 alleviate the damage inflicted on wheat seedlings by tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA). The biochemical characteristics of wheat seedlings were analysed through laboratory simulation after co-treating seedlings with PS21 and 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 100 mg kg-1 TBBPA, respectively. The results sho...

to study the effect of salinity stress on some physiological attributes of four grape cultivars in vineyards of urmia in iran, an experiment was carried out as factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with four replications. experimental factors included: grape cultivars qazel ozum, qareh shireh, tabrzeh and dizmari, and salt concentrations 0, 25, 50 and 100 mmol l-1 and locati...

Quality characteristics of Korean commercial apple wine, Moru wine, red wine, white wine, and raspberry wine were compared in this study. The aim of this study is to improve the quality of fruit wines, based on physicochemical characteristics, fermentation quality, correlation between soluble solid and sugar content, and a relationship between electrical conductivity and other analyzed paramete...

this paper reports on the use of artificial neural networks (ann) and partial least squareregression (pls) combined with nir spectroscopy (900-1700 nm) to design calibration models for thedetermination of sugar content in sugar beet. in this study a total of 80 samples were used as the calibration set,whereas 40 samples were used for prediction. three pre-processing methods, including multiplic...

The study was conducted in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 7 treatments replicated thrice. were T1 (pomegranate juice 1ltr + 0.5 g yeast 500 sugar), T2 1g 500g T3 1.5g T4 2g T5 2.5g T6 3g T7 3.5g sugar). pomegranate fermented using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. cider assessed for the physico-chemical changes that occurred throughout its 90 days of storage, as well sensory quality a 9-point ...

Most rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars grown in the United States were selected for endosperm starch properties and not soluble sugar content. The minor pool of soluble sugar may affect the qualities of rice as a food. Some cultivar variation in soluble sugar content was detected in milled grain, essentially the starchy endosperm, of long grain varieties. Milled grain of cultivars Lemont and Tex...

A factorial split plot 4 × 3 experiment was designed to examine and characterize the relationship among production of secondary metabolites (total phenolics, TP; total flavonoids, TF), carbohydrate content and photosynthesis of three varieties of the Malaysian medicinal herb Labisia pumila Benth. namely the varieties alata, pumila and lanceolata under CO(2) enrichment (1,200 µmol mol(-1)) combi...
