Zivzik pomegranate is an important source of income for producers in Siirt province. There are many harmful insect species that cause loss yield and quality pomegranate. This study was carried out to determine the pest production areas province its districts 2018 2019. The conducted total 38 orchards 12 villages 3 (Central, Şirvan Pervari). To species, samples were collected with pheromone trap...

The present work studied low-cost carbon sources for carotenoid and lipid production using the yeast Rhodosporidum toruloides NCYC 921. Carob pulp syrup and sugarcane molasses at different concentrations were used as low-cost carbon sources in R. toruloides batch cultivations. Carob pulp syrup containing a total sugar concentration of 75 g L(-1) induced the highest total fatty acid productivity...

in order to investigate the role of stamen removal from pomegranate flowers on percentage of fruit infestation to carob moth ectomyelois ceratoniae zeller (lepidoptera: pyralidae) a survey was carried out in two provinces of iran, markazi and yazd during 2004-2005. treatments were arranged in an rcbd (10 of 3 blocks) in 3 treatments of: stamen removal in all flowers, (a); stamen removal in firs...

The possibility of utilising chopped and deseeded carob pods (kibbles) as a source of polyphenolic antioxidants was examined by performing extractions with various solvent systems, in order to evaluate and optimize the conditions for the recovery of polyphenols. Maximum quantities of polyphenolic components were found in 80 % acetone extracts, as evaluated by measuring total polyphenol and tota...

An effective method was elaborated for extracting the active substances from commercially available Garden thyme and carob seeds. The antibacterial activity of dilutions of thyme and carob extracts and their combinations were studied by taking the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) with agar well diffusion technique. The most effective concentrations of the two herb extracts were used for ...

Hypercholesterolemia is commonly associated with obesity that leads to heart diseases and diabetes. The hepatocardioprotective activity of parsley and carob methanol extract was tested in hypercholesterolemic male rats. Twenty-four male albino rats were divided into four groups (n = 6). Group 1 was the negative control group fed with fat rich diet, group 2 (G2) was hypercholesterolemic rats fed...

Methanol (ME) and hot water extracts (WE) of carob tree sapwood (Ceratonia siliqua L.) exhibited high antioxidant activity and were rich in phenolic compounds, with the main compounds identified by HPLC/DAD as gentisic acid and (-)-epicatechin. The ME displayed a high in vitro antitumor activity against human tumoural cell lines and reduced intracellular ROS production by HeLa cells after treat...

Carob leaves (Ceratonia siliqua L.), grown in Egypt have not fully identified in Egypt. Therefore, eight major phenolic compounds were isolated from the aqueous ethanolic extract using different methods of chromatography; gallic acid, quercetin 3-O-4C1-B-D-glucoside (Isoquercetin), Kaempferol 3-O1C4-"-Lrhamnoside (Afzelin), Quercetin 3-O-1C4-"-L-rhamnoside (Quercitrin), 1,2,6 tri-O-galloyl-B-D4...

In this study, Ceratonia siliqua L. carob seeds harvested from both wild and cultivated genotypes in Turkey were subjected to mechanical scarification, soaking in hot water and dipping in sulfuric acid. All treatments hastened seed germination and seedling growth of carob compared to control. The germination percentage of control seeds were similar for both wild and cultivated genotypes (13%) a...

The aim of this study was to validate a workflow that allows structural identification plant volatiles induce behavioral response in insects. Due the complexity volatile emissions and low levels at which these bioactive components tend occur, gas chromatography-electroantennography (GC-EAD) applied as prime differentiator technique, i.e., indicate particular peaks interest chromatogram. In next...
