Immobilized Saccharomyces Cerevisiae as a potential aflatoxin decontaminating agent in pistachio nuts
In this study, we investigated the binding ability of Saccharomayces cerevisiae to aflatoxin in pistachio nuts. The obtained results indicate that S. cerevisiae has an aflatoxin surface binding ability of 40% and 70% (with initial aflatoxin concentrations of 10 and 20 ppb) in the exponential phase. Acid treatments increase this ability to approximately 60% and 73% for the two concentrations of ...
متن کاملA Survey on Contamination of Iranian Pistachio Cultivars to Aspergillus Section Flavi and Aflatoxin
Population density of Aspergillus section Flavi in pistachio kernels of Iranian cultivars was studied in main pistachio growing areas of Iran during 2015 to 2017. In order to investigate the rate of contamination of pistachio cultivars to Aspergillus section Flavi and aflatoxins, 13 pistachio cultivars, including Akbari, Kaleh-ghouchi, Ovhadi, Ahmad-aghaee, M...
متن کاملNutrition attributes and health effects of pistachio nuts.
Epidemiological and/or clinical trials have suggested that nut consumption has a beneficial impact on health outcomes such as hypertension, diabetes, CVD, cancer, other inflammatory conditions and total mortality. Nuts are nutrient-dense foods with a healthy fatty acid profile, as well as provide other bioactive compounds with recognised health benefits. Among nuts, pistachios have a lower fat ...
متن کاملDrying Kinetics of Pistachio Nuts (Pistacia vera L.)
The effect of different air temperatures (40, 50, 60 and 70°C), air velocities (1 and 2 m/s) and bed depth (monolayer, 3 and 5 cm) on drying kinetics and lipid quality (peroxide value and free fatty acids) of a variety of Persian Pistachio nuts (Abasali variety) were studied. Additionally, effective diffusivity (D ) was determined eff by using Fick’s second law varied from 7.061×10 to 2.105×10 ...
متن کاملOccurrence of aflatoxin B1 in pistachio nuts during various preparing processes: tracing from Iran
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a secondary metabolite produced by some Aspergillus species, which haveharmful impacts on human health such as carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, acute and chronic toxicity.In this study, the occurrence of AFB1 in pistachio nuts during various preparing processes wasinvestigated in two pistachio farms from Qazvin province, Iran, from September to November 2012.High Performa...
