pollen storage could facilitate the date palm hand pollination through saving time and space. the main concern is maintaining pollen viability, which is greatly cultivar dependent and is influenced by storage condition. in this study, to address this issue, the effects of cultivar, storage temperature, and time on pollen germination were investigated. a factorial experiment was laid out in a co...

Investigations were carried out on development quality evaluation and shelf life studies of buffalo meat emulsion sausage prepared by different levels of fat and skimmed milk powder (SMP) at refrigerated storage temperature (0°C). The quality of emulsion sausage was based on the basis of physico-chemical characteristics namely moisture content, pH, protein content, TBA number, microbial charact...

One source of both bias and "noise" in fecal steroid analysis is temporal change in steroid concentrations resulting from duration or conditions of fecal sample storage. However, no consensus currently exists regarding correct procedures or precautions necessary for fecal sample storage, and conditions vary widely within field endocrinology literature. This study considered the effects of short...

Crude wild pear lipoxygenase (LOX) from ripe Kurdistan wild pears was used in this study. Extracted crude LOX was assayed spectrophotometrically for raw, ripe wild pear lipoxygenase and after 7-day storage. The effects of different buffers and pHs, substrate preparations, temperature, inhibitors and metal ions on LOX activity were evaluated at three conditions. The enzyme was most active with H...

Molasses is a significant by-product of sugar beet or sugar cane refining industry. In this work, the effects of storage temperature and packaging on the contents of free amino acids (AAs) in sugar beet and sugar cane molasses after freeze drying were inquired. The effect of different variables such as, temperature (4 and 25˚C) and light (Metallized polypropylene container and Normal polypropyl...

sensitivity of tomato fruits to chilling injury limits its storage and marketability. this study investigated the effect of hot water treatment (hwt) on reducing the consequences of chilling injury (ci) with respect to quality attributes of tomatoes during storage. tomatoes were harvested at three ripening stages: mature green, pink, and red; dipped in hot water at 45°c for 15 min; and stored a...

An accelerated method was used to determine the effect of temperature, end-of-charge voltage and the type of storage condition over the performance pouch lithium-ion cells. The cells were studied for 4.0 V and 4.2 V end-of-charge voltages (EOCV) both at 5 ◦C and 35 ◦C. The irreversible capacity loss of the cell was analyzed every month using a capacity measurement protocol. The results indicate...
