Apple pomace is a waste product of the apple manufacturing industry that has been in the focus of life sciences as it represents a low-cost source of fruit-derived compounds. High fruit consumption is associated with beneficial health effects, and therefore, apple pomace and its constituents raise therapeutic interest. The present work reviews (i) the chemical constituents of apple pomace, (ii)...

Increasing the consumption of fruit and vegetables is a central component of improving population health. Reasons people give for choosing one food over another suggest health is of lower importance than taste. This study assesses the impact of using a simple descriptive label to highlight the taste as opposed to the health value of fruit on the likelihood of its selection. Participants (N=439)...

When damage to dental pulp is reversible, pulp wound healing can proceed, whereas irreversible damage induces pathological changes in dental pulp, eventually requiring its removal. Nonvital teet...

Mango and Moringa are nutrient-dense foods. This study examined two mango varieties (apple Tommy Atkin) for nectar production fortifying with leaf extract to reduce postharvest losses, food insecurity, malnutrition. Post-harvest losses high in Kenya (40-50%) affects farmers' income the environment if processed into nectar, can address (PHL). is rich vitamins minerals but lacks adequate micronut...

background: the correct usage of  wastes in animal nutrition causes  decrease in environmental pollution. apple pomace as an energetic matter and source of digestible fibers for ruminants is a proper alternative for forage. objectives: the aim of this experiment was to investigate the effect of diets containing dried apple pomace on digestibility, rumination, microbial fermentation and blood gl...

In New York State, a large number of both native and introduced insect and mite species attack apples grown in commercial apple orchards. Control of this pest complex is particularly challenging, because unlike the more arid apple production regions on the West Coast, apple orchards in N.Y. are commonly in close proximity to semi-wooded areas having an abundance of wild apple and hawthorn speci...
