The oranges were purchased from the local market of Bela. The orange peel and pulp were subjected to successive extraction with solvents in increasing order of their polarity viz. Acetone, hexane, methanol and distilled water. Orange peel and pulp powder was extracted separately by aqueous extraction. Phytochemical analysis indicated the presence of tannins, saponins etc. Anthraquiones were com...

“While our findings suggest that people who consume large amounts of whole grapefruit or orange juice may be at increased risk for melanoma, we need much more research before any concrete recommendations can be made,” said lead study author Shaowei Wu, PhD, a postdoctoral research fellow at the Department of Dermatology, the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University in Providence, Rhode ...

BACKGROUND The medical application of pomegranate fruits and its peel is attracted human beings. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro α-Glucosidase inhibition, antimicrobial, antioxidant property and in vivo anti-hyperglycemic activity of Punica granatum (pomegranate) fruit peel extract using Caenorhabditis elegans. METHODS Various invitro antioxidant activity of fruit pe...

A simple model for the peeling process of pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is presented. The model consists of linear springs and dashpots and can be solved analytically. Based on the modeling, the curved profile of the peeling tape is spontaneously determined in terms of viscoelastic properties of adhesives. Using this model, two experimental results are discussed: critical peel rates in the p...

Osteoporosis is a worldwide disease depicted by the reduced bone mass, an adequate supply of minerals needed to support remodeling, and their deficiency causes bone-related diseases, osteoporosis in particular, has osteoprotective effects. The aim this recent research was quantify micro- (Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn) macroelements (Mg, K, Ca) peel powder some common fruits (pomegranate, orange, lemon, mango...

American foulbrood, caused by Paenibacillus larvae subsp. larvae (White 1906) is one of the most serious diseases of honey bees, causing beekeepers and health workers to make difficult, complex decisions and leading to the development of 'organic' treatments, such as grapefruit seed extract, with minor residue problems in the end product. This study evaluates the chemical composition of grapefr...

In Jordan, as well in all the world countries, consumption of citrus fruits is an essential part daily diet, so it important to assess potential risk persistent organic pollutants such polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) these human health and identify their sources order eliminate or reduce them. This study reports 16 priority PAHs content four types peeled grown Jordan valley. were detected stud...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the project was to delineate a series of contiguous neighbourhood-based "Data Zones" within the Region of Peel (Ontario) for the purpose of health data analysis and dissemination. Zones were to be built on Census Tracts (N = 205) and obey a series of requirements defined by the Region of Peel. This paper explores a method that combines statistical analysis with ground-...

Canarium odontophyllum, also known as CO, is a highly nutritious fruit. Defatted parts of CO fruit are potent sources of nutraceutical. This study aimed to determine oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation effects of defatted CO pericarp and peel extracts using in vitro bioassays. Cell cytotoxic effect of the CO pericarp and peel extracts were also evaluated using HUVEC and Chang liver cell lin...
