pistachio oil has important nutritional and therapeutic properties because of high concentration of essential fatty acids. the extraction method used to obtain natural compounds from raw matter is critical for product quality and especially protection of nutrition value of them. the study was conducted to compare fatty acid composition of pistachio oil extracted by two conventional procedures: ...

cold stress is one of the important factors which will reduce crop yield and fruit production in world. Early spring cooling and freezing weather is mostly. Possible this may considerable damage pistachio productions and farmer will lose most of their profit. Therefore study which show how pistachio plant cope freezing weather is valuable and important. The special role of amino acid in plant r...

introduction:pistachio (pistaciavera l.) is a tasty nuts and a good source of nutrients. during the last decade, the worldwide trades of pistachio have increasing trend, likely reflecting on the increase in consumers demand for this nuts. the high oil and essential fatty acid contents of the pistachio kernel is important from a nutritional point of view. however, high unsaturated fatty acids co...

Due to low consumer acceptance and possibility of having immature kernels, closed-shell pistachio nuts have to be separated from open-shell pistachio nuts. The feasibility of a system using non-contact impact acoustics as a means for classifying closed-shell nuts from open-shell nuts has already been shown with better discrimination performance than a mechanical system. The accuracy of an impac...

In this study, the treatment of pistachio nuts by Bacillus subtilis UTBSP1, a promising isolate to degrade aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), caused to reduce the growth of Aspergillus flavus R5 and AFB1 content on pistachio nuts. Fluorescence probes revealed that the cell free supernatant fluid from UTBSP1 affects spore viability considerably. Using high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method, 10 ...

HIGHLIGHTS Adulteration of pistachio products with green pea is common due to price issues. We identified the presence down 0.1% developed protocol. HRM fast and precise for testing authenticity powdered pistachio.

Pistacia atlantica Desf. (Atlas pistachio) is one of the most widely distributed wild species genus. It an Irano–Touranian with a large geographic area that extends from Canary Islands to Pamir Mountains. Since ancient times, atlas pistachio gum-like resin and fruits, very rich in essential oils (EOs) fixed (FOs), respectively, were used traditional medicine included different cosmetics health ...

the effect of thyme and ajowan essential oils (200µg/l and 300µg/l respectivilly ) on growth of aflatoxin-producing strain of aspergillus parasiticus on 2 stages of pistachio (green and with dry peel ) was studied . also organoleptic tests for evaluating odor and flavor residual of essential oils on pistachio were also performed tested . the collected data were statistically analyzed. the resul...

iranian pistachio is one of the strategic crops within most agricultural commodities having the highest income from exports for the country and a significant share of the country's non-oil exports but the marketing and packaging technologies for this crop are at a low level in comparison with competing countries like usa. in recent years the rate of production and its exports have decreased dra...

The aim of this study was to synthesize chemically activated carbons from different agricultural residues, i.e., pistachio shell (PS), bitter orange peel (OP), and saffron petal (SP), subsequently use them as supports for loading a Ni catalyst. Supercritical water gasification bio-oil applied investigate the catalytic performance resulting catalysts. physicochemical properties carbon (ACs) cata...
