Removal Of Contaminants From Aqueous Solutions Using Hop (Humulus Lupulus L.) Agricultural By-Products

Predicting Offspring Performance in Hop (Humulus lupulus L

J. Am. Soc. Brew. Chem. 68(3):125-131, 2010 Genetic information for male and female hop accessions is limited, hampering parental selection to maximize offspring productivity. Our objective was to determine whether amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)derived genetic distance (GDmm) estimates and coancestry estimates from pedigrees (GSped) between parental pairs could be used to predict...

Assessment report on Humulus lupulus L., flos

Inhibitors of nitric oxide production from hops (Humulus lupulus L.).

Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in many inflammatory responses and is also involved in carcinogenesis. In the present study, we investigated the inhibitory effect of extracts from Humulus lupulus L. on both the production of NO and the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) in mouse macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. The production of NO was induced by a combination of lipopolysaccharide...

Determination of aroma and bitter characteristic of Iranian hop (Humulus lupulus L.) variety by essential oil analysis

Hop (Humulus lupulus L) is cultivated worldwide for two purposes of aroma and bitter taste. The main objective of this study was to determine the predominant characteristic of hop cultivated in Iran using GC-MS analysis of essential oils obtained from fresh and heat dried hop strobiles. Essential oils (EO) of female flowers of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) cultivated in Gorgan, Iran were obtained by...

Removal of hazardous reactive blue19 dye from aqueous solutions by agricultural waste

Low-cost grapefruit peel (Agricultural Waste) was used for removal of reactive blue19 dye fromaqueous solutions. The process was studied as a function of contact time, initial dye concentration andpH. Adsorption process was attained to the equilibrium within 45 min for initial dye concentrations of 50,75, and 100 mg L-1. An acidic medium was the optimum condition for adsorption of dye at roomte...
