in this study, the effectiveness of chitosan coating treatment to control weight loss and maintaining fruit quality of apricot was investigated. fruits were coated with 0.25%, 0.5% and 0.75% chitosan as well as distilled water (control). following treatments, fruits were stored at 0?c and 80 ? 2% relative humidity for 25 days. the weight loss, total soluble solids (tss), titratable acidity (ta)...

sunburn damage is a physiological disorder, which reducing pomegranate fruits quality and result to huge loss to the gardeners yearly. in this study, the effects of kaolin on maintaining fruit quality and decreasing sunburn damage of malas-e-torsh-e-saveh pomegranate was investigated. processed kaolin (surround® wp) with 0, 2.5, 5 and 10 % (w/v) was sprayed over the whole canopy and fruits at 4...

Background: The xoconostle (Opuntia joconostle Web.) plant is produced mainly in the Central Highlands region of Mexico. The main aim of this research was to determine the effect of pasteurization on chemical and functional properties of xoconostle juice. Methods: Total Soluble Solids (TSS), pH, Titratable Acidity (TA), total phenolic and flavonoid content, betacyanins, betaxanthins, and red...

This study was to utilize the waste from canned tuna processing (tuna precooking juice) for producing dried tuna flavor powder. Tuna precooking juice was centrifuged and concentrated to 15% total soluble solid (TSS). Maltodextrin (DE 9) was added to increase the TSS of tuna precooking concentrate to 20, 22, 24 and 26%, then dried by spray dryer at 180oC inlet air temperature. The compositions a...

Teluk Kendari merupakan urat nadi perekonomian penting di Kota Kendari. Sedimentasi menjadi isu utama yang dapat mempengaruhi luasan termasuk aktivitas berlangsung kawasan tersebut. tinggi ditunjukkan dari tingginya nilai Total Suspended Solid (TSS) suatu perairan, sehingga perlu dilakukan pemantauan TSS secara periodik untuk mendukung upaya penanganan sedimentasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan meng...

The chemical and biological stability of wine are very dependent on pH value, hence winemakers believe that plays a critical role in fermentation final quality. This paper optimized assessed the influence different physicochemical parameters must prepared from hot water extract leaf Broom-cluster Fig (Ficus capensis) with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ameliorating to 22 oBrix using table sugar addi...

The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of natural flocculants to reduce solids and nutrient loads in dairy cow wastewater using solid-liquid separation; chitosan was used as a model. Its use efficiency and optimum application rate were determined using flushed dairy cow manure of varied strengths - 0.4%, 0.8%, 1.6%, and 3.2% total solids (TS) content. Treatments consisted of n...
