to prolong the storage life and quality of 'zafarany' peach, fruits were treated with uv-c irradiation with dosage of 1.435×10-4 wcm-2 with three time durations (0, 5 and 15 min) and as well immersion of fruits in 0 and 3% cacl2 solution. the experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design (factorial experiment) of four replications. fruits were harvested in commercial ma...

storage of potatoes is very important because fresh potatoes are available only for a few months in a year. thus, any treatment such as irradiation that controls sprout growth and extends shelf life of potatoes could be beneficial. in this study, potato sprout inhibition and tuber quality after treatment with various levels of gamma irradiation (0, 50, 100 and 150 gy) on different dates (10, 30...

Introduction: Textile wastewaters from dyeing and finishing processes are heavily polluted with dyes, textile auxiliaries and chemicals and have a broad range of pH, high COD concentration and suspended particles. In this study, the efficiency of color and turbidity removal from synthetic textile wastewater samples were investigated by combined process of coagulation/ flocculation and electron ...

The formation of regulated and emerging halogenated carbonaceous (C-) and nitrogenous disinfection by-products (N-DBPs) from the chlor(am)ination and UV irradiation of tyrosine (Tyr) was investigated. Increased chlorine contact time and/or Cl(2)/Tyr ratio increased the formation of most C-DBPs, with the exception of 4-chlorophenol, dichloroacetonitrile, and dichloroacetamideChloroform and dichl...

Effects of drying temperature and artificial UV irradiation on the pH of veneer surfaces, water absorption, thickness swelling, as well as shear strength of plywood manufactured from untreated and treated veneer sheets were evaluated. Rotary cut veneer sheets from beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) log were selected. The veneer sheets were dried at either 100C or 180C after peeling. Then the sur...

Clarified and standardized apple juice was ultraviolet-irradiated to inactivate polyphenol oxidase enzyme and microbiota, and its effect on bioactive compounds and stability during storage was also evaluated. Apple juice was irradiated with 345.6 J/cm² and treatment effect was evaluated in terms of color, antioxidant capacity, polyphenol content, pH, titratable acidity and total soluble solids....
