The objective of this work was to study the agronomic effects application agri-food composts in almond trees (Prunus dulcis L.) cultivated two different areas with varieties (cv. Guara and cv. Ferraduel), both organic farming conditions throughout cropping cycles. To reach objective, production quality issues (seed production, kernel yield, nutrient contents quality), as well several physico-ch...

The aim of the study was to evaluate effect irrigation depths, via subsurface drip, on technological quality, productivity, and water use efficiency (WUE) sugarcane cultivars. experimental design balanced blocks with 12 two factors: cultivars (CTC 4, IACSP93-3046, RB86-7515, IACSP95-5000 IAC91-1099) depths (dry, deficit supplementary). From estimated evapotranspiration (ETc), equivalent 100% cr...

Midday leaf CO2 exchange rate (CER), concentration of chlorophyll (Chl) and soluble protein and activity of the primary enzymes involved in leaf photosynthesis and sucrose metabolism were determined during leaf ontogeny for sugarcane plants grown at ambient (360 mmol mol ) and double-ambient (elevated, 720 mmol mol ) CO2. Although leaf CER of both CO2 treatments increased and was highest at 14 ...

milk and fruit juice due to the high nutritional value, are widely consumed by society’s people. pomegranate juice in spite of nutritional value has oldness in consumption and milk-pomegranate juice product could be desirable specifically for the consumers who are keen to experience new formulation and taste. milk-juice beverage is a type of acidified milk drink that one of the main problems in...

Abstract. This study aims to treat juice industry wastewater and recover resources using purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB). Simulated was prepared used as a feedstock for PNSB. Carbon sources, including sucrose, fructose, glucose, tris-Na-citrate, were added different bottles separately inoculated with mixed culture of Tris-Na-citrate showed higher growth biomass production (650±70 mg/L) than t...

Alkalizing beverages are highly effective in preventing the recurrence of calcium oxalate (Ox), uric acid and cystine lithiasis. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of grapefruit-juice and apple-juice consumption on the excretion of urinary variables and the risk of crystallization in comparison with orange juice. All investigations were carried out on nine healthy female...

OBJECTIVE Our objective was to determine whether Seville orange juice produces a grapefruit juice-like interaction with felodipine and whether bergamottin, 6',7'-dihydroxybergamottin, or other furocoumarins are involved. METHODS In a randomized three-way crossover design, 10 volunteers received a felodipine 10-mg extended-release tablet with 240 mL of Seville orange juice, dilute grapefruit j...

OBJECTIVE To measure iron absorption in children from meals containing apple juice or orange juice so as to determine if iron absorption will be greater with orange juice because of its higher ascorbic acid content than apple juice, a noncitrus fruit juice that US children reportedly prefer. DESIGN On 2 successive days, children consumed identical meals that included apple juice on one day an...

BACKGROUND 6',7'-Dihydroxybergamottin is a furanocoumarin that inhibits CYP3A4 and is found in grapefruit juice and Seville orange juice. Grapefruit juice increases the oral bioavailability of many CYP3A4 substrates, including cyclosporine (INN, ciclosporin), but intestinal P-glycoprotein may be a more important determinant of cyclosporine availability. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the contribution...
