Th e drying characteristics of “Granny Smith” apple were investigated using a bench-scale fl uidised bed drier at diff erent temperatures and using blanching in hot water as pre-treatment. Temperatures of fl uidisation for non-treated and treated samples were 50, 60, 70 and 80 oC and airfl ow velocity 3.50 m s-1. Th e aim of the experiment was to get apples with approximately 9% water content, ...

This study provides a comparative overview of Moringa oleifera leaf and seed protein extract (LPE SPE, respectively) functionality in emulsions. Raw cake (RS) had more (45.8%) than raw (RL) (27.4%). RL comprised higher polyphenol flavonoid content RS, Granny Smith apples, Goji berries. Protein data revealed that LPE excellent solubility, emulsifying properties SPE at pH 7.0. In contrast, relati...

Hasattan sonra 10 °C sıcaklıkta ve 24 saat süreyle 0, 156.25, 312.5, 625 ppb dozlarında 1- Metilsiklopropen (1-MCP) Granny Smith elma meyvelerine uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada referans olarak kullanılan 1-MCP ürünü dozunda Uygulamalardan meyveler 0±0.5 sıcaklık %90±5 oransal nem koşullarında 4 ay muhafaza edilmiş her kalite analizleri yapılmıştır. Raf ömrü çalışması için dönem 20 %55±5 1 hafta bekle...

Vis-NIRS, MIRS, and a combination of both coupled with PLS machine learning were applied to i) trace the composed proportions different apple varieties in formulated purees ii) predict quality characteristics from spectral information initial puree cultivars. The models could estimate each cultivar mixtures using MIR spectra (RMSEP<8.1%, RPD> 3.6), especially for Granny Smith (RMSEP = 2.7%, RPD...

I look at data from an experiment in which people rank apples according to how they think they will taste. They are then blindfolded and rank how they actually taste. I estimate a multinomial rankordered probit model with correlated errors between the taste and visual rankings. I find that the errors for visual characteristics are correlated based on coloring, while the errors for taste are cor...

More than 70% of birch pollen-allergic patients develop allergic cross-reactions to the major allergen found in apple fruits (Malus domestica), the 17.5 kDa protein Mal d 1. Allergic reactions against this protein result from initial sensitization to the major allergen from birch pollen, Bet v 1. Immunologic cross-reactivity of Bet v 1-specific IgE antibodies with Mal d 1 after apple consumptio...

Five classifiers including the K-means, Fuzzy c-means, K-nearest neighbour, Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network and Probabilistic Neural Network classifiers are compared for application to colour grade classification and detection of bruising of Granny Smith apples. A number of suitable discriminate features are determined heuristically for the categorisation of four classes including: high g...

study of morphological traits of red fleshed apples is a critical step to improve the quality andcommercializing of them. in order to study genetic diversity of iranian red fleshed apples, a total of 17morphological characteristics were assessed for eight genotypes of red- fleshed (‘haji qermez’, ‘goushtqermez’, ‘shahroud-10’, ‘arous gousht qermz’, ‘b.9’, ‘qazvin 1, 2, 3’) and 12 iranian and fo...

in modern agriculture, image processing technique is used for mechanization and intelligent machines instead of humans. one of them is identifying varieties of plants and fruits. identifying plant varieties is important in plant eugenic programs. visual examination of plant leaves and fruits are the common processes for this aim. identification and classification of plants using machine vision ...
