barhee is considered as one of the most popular date cultivars worldwide. its fruits, because of low tannin content and low astringency can be, and are consumed at khalal stage. due to its high water content and respiration rate, khalal date fruit is very perishable and of low storage life. limited supply, and difficulties involved in marketing of this product, makes one think of new packaging ...

to study the chemical composition and qualitative comparison of the pistachio by-products and the effect of pistachio hull tannin on its digestibility and gas production, four experiments were carried out. in the first experiment, nutrient composition, phenolic and tannin components of the ohadi, kaleghuchi and white varieties of pistachio by-product from dehulling process were measured. pistac...

The novelty of this paper was to evaluation the effect intermittent microwave drying (IMD) on nutritional quality and characteristics persimmon slices. Persimmon slices were treated with IMD at power levels 280, 350, 420, 490, 560 W, characteristics, components, sensory properties determined analyzed. results showed that process could be divided into three stages; increasing speed, constant dec...

Background: Thymus persicus is one of the Iranian endemic medicinal plants, that its decoction and various products have plenty of food and pharmaceutical uses. Objective: Evaluation of T. persicus products metabolite contains and determination of the best antioxidant, anti-diabetic and anti-Alzheimer extract. Methods: Samples total phenolic, flavonoid and tannin contents were determined by F...

Contents of total polyphenols, condensed tannins and proanthocyanidins, and their stability to various pH values and temperatures were studied in Mexican blueberry, cuautecomate fruit, garambullo fruit, aubergine, coffee pulp and residues of black grapes. Several aqueous extracts, obtained through a one-pass-extraction process, were analyzed using liquid chromatography in order to quantify the ...

Maytenus ilicifolia and Maytenus aquifolia species are widely used as a cicatrisation agent, an anti-spasmodic, contraceptive, antiulcerogenic, diuretic and analgesic. Considering the importance of these species in popular medicine, this work is focused on the determination of the chemical content of tannins and the triterpenes friedelan-3-one, friedelan-3-ol and friedelin in 15 native populati...

effects of condensed tannins (ct) on crude protein availability in sainfoin hay was investigated according to most popular ruminant feeding systems. different treatments including polyethylene glycol (6000 mw), sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, potassium permanganate, wood ash, water and urea, were applied for deactivation of ct crude protein fractioning was determined using nylon bag techn...

The impacts of leaf litter from genetically modified hybrid poplar accumulating high levels of condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins) were examined in soil microcosms consisting of moss growing on sieved soil. Moss preferentially proliferated in microcosms with lower tannin content; DGGE (denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) detected increased fungal diversity in microcosms with low-tannin l...
