The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of seven yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius Poepp. and Endl.) cultivars (Cajamarca, Cusco, Early White, Late Red, Morado, New Zealand and Quinault) cultivated in the southwest of Germany. The following phyto/chemical traits were investigated in different yacon tuber parts (flesh, peel, and whole tubers): total dry matter, sugar cont...

the objective of the present experiment was to study the root mass and sugar losses of sugar beet during the storing beets in two methods of on-farm storage. a factorial split plot experiment with nine replications based on a completely randomized design was conducted during 2005 in the experimental fields of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi) of iran, in karaj. combination of two harvest dates (...

in order to evaluate the effects of wastewater irrigation on sugar content and morphological traits of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.), an experiment was conducted in split plot design based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research station in shahrekord university in 2013. the treatments consisted of irrigation with urban wastewater at 2-4 and 8-12 leaf stages, and ...

This study investigated the physicochemical characteristics of black garlic (BG) after different thermal processing steps. Compared with fresh garlic (FG), the moisture content and pH in BG decreased significantly, while the ash content and browning intensity increased during thermal processing. The total mineral and the free sugar contents were significantly higher than that of the BG2 and BG4...

Increased consumer demand for healthier product options and looming regulation have prompted many goods brands to adjust the amount of sugar content in their lines, including adding products with reduced or smaller package sizes. Even as adopt such practices, little guidance exists how they should do so protect enhance brand performance. This research studies whether when reduction strategies a...

in semiarid regions of iran, one of the crop production management methods is delayed irrigation after emergence. this is due to simultaneous water requirement of cereal and spring season crops. a field study was conducted in kabootarabad research station to investigate the effect of delayed irrigation on root yield, quality and growth trend using a rcb with four replications. the irrigation tr...

This may come as a surprise, but honey actually contains the same basic units as table sugar. Both types of sweet stuff contain sucrose, fructose, and glucose, but honey contains a higher proportion of fructose compared to glucose. There's also a difference in nutrient content ? honey has trace amounts of enzymes, amino acids, B vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. However, they?re in such low...

determination of chlorophyll content and chlorophyll fluorescence has the potential needed to analyze the efficiency of photosynthesis in plants against environmental stresses, especially salinity, and its simplicity facilitates stress evaluation. in order to study the response of different photosynthetic characters to salinity stress at different sugar beet growth stages, two separate experime...

INGREDIENTS Cinnamon is a spice produced from the bark of numerous trees from the genus Cinnamomum. Cinnamomum cassia has been used as a spice in culinary cuisine and as a traditional herbal medicine for centuries.1 The highly refined sugar and high fat content of US diets and other westernized countries make it difficult to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. For most of the world population,...
