Abstract This study was aimed to determine the land suitability class of fruit and vegetable crops which are potential be developed in lowland Bintuni Bay. It showed that Manimeri is for development (particularly orange rambutan), vegetables (greens mustard, long beans, chili). Based on actual suitability, this area categorized as marginal (S3) with water availability, nutrient retention, avail...

The use of cacao, in its familiar food and beverage form, dates back about 3,800 years. By the time of the discovery of America by Europeans, the Aztecs and Mayans had developed methods for drying, roasting and grinding cacao beans for use in beverages and foods.

Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are an important food staple in many traditional diets. There is limited evidence to suggest an inverse relationship between bean consumption and colon cancer. The objective of this study was to determine whether consumption of black beans and/or navy beans would reduce colon carcinogenesis in rats. Rats were fed a modified AIN-93G diet (control) or diets containing 7...

The aim of the research was to determine the impact of fermentation with Pleurotus ostreatus on kidney beans, black beans, and oats. The results indicate that the fungus has a positive effect on the substrates when compared to the controls. The antioxidant activity (39.5% on kidney beans and 225% on oats in relation to the controls) and content of total polyphenols (kidney beans three times hig...

In Japan, maximum residue limits for pesticides (MRL) in coffee are set on green coffee beans, but not roasted coffee beans, although roasted beans are actually used to prepare coffee for drinking. Little is known about the behavior of pesticides during the roasting process. In the present study, we examined the changes in the concentration of pesticide (organochlorine: γ-BHC, chlordane and hep...

Abstract The purpose of the present study is to investigate physical properties medium roasted Sidikalang robusta coffee beans that originated from various colors cherries. A semi-wet method has been applied for each cherry with a range fruit ripeness (green, yellow, orange, bright red and dark red). measurements include mass loss, density, porosity, water content. After level, density differen...
