harvesting time of kiwifruit can influence quality characteristics. the current research was carried out according to a completely randomized design with three replications at faculty of agricultural sciences, university of guilan in 2009. weight loss, flesh firmness, total soluble solid (tss), titritable acidity (ta), ascorbic acid, total phenol content and antioxidant capacity of harvested fr...

today, in parallel to growing in acceptance of functional products, various additives are used to improve the characteristics of functional food products. the coenzyme q10 plays a vital role in cellular energy production. it also increases the body's immune system via its antioxidant activity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the addition of coenzyme q10 on physicochemical properties of or...

Introduction. In dental practice, despite the constant improvement of equipment and materials, caries removal using rotational instruments is still not a satisfactory way. The treatment constantly offers numerous alternatives in order to replace machine tools, one them chemo-mechanical method. aim this paper examine effectiveness method BRIX 3000 classic Material Method. We used 3000; material ...

Some physical properties and chemical compositions of two cultivars (Semsouri and Shahabadi) of cantaloupe studied during four different stages of maturity from fruit set to completely ripe. The physical properties investigated were the geometric mean diameter (GMD), specific gravity (SG), mean firmness (MF), rind, seed (%) and flesh (%). The chemical compositions were Brix, Titrable Acidity (T...

The aim of this study is investigation on effect of stem end splitting and Geranium essential oil on vase life on quality of cut chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum L.). This experiment arranged as factorial based on RCD with 2 factors of stem end splitting at 2 levels (with splitting and without splitting) and Geranium essential oil at 6 levels (0, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 10 %), with 12 treatments...

Okra farmers use inorganic fertilizers which are expensive, they result to water pollution, increases the soil acidity, affects nutrients availability and uptake as well reducing microbial activity. Organic manure improves physical, chemical biological properties, environmental friendly. However, have limited information on utilization of these organic sources growth yield, quality net economic...

The objective of this study was to identify herd-level colostrum management factors associated with the adequate transfer passive immunity (TPI; defined as serum Brix refractance ≥8.4% in first week life). A total 59 commercial Holstein dairy farms were included observational cross-sectional study. In every participating herd, a minimum 14 calves sampled measure their TPI using digital refracto...

Abstract The aim of this study was to elaborate the effects using isomalto-oligosaccharide, polydextrose, and inulin as humectant towards sugar-free pineapple jam physicochemical sensory characteristics. Eleven different samples were made with determined concentration each prebiotic, followed analysis water activity, degree brix, color, 72-hour syneresis, evaluation spreadability, hedonic test,...
