The relative performance of a clear delta trap baited with individual or combination sex pheromone and kairomone lures for codling moth, Cydia pomonella L., was evaluated against three vertical clear pane and colored delta traps in field trials within apple, Malus domestica (Borkhausen). The clear caught significantly more moths of each sex than an orange delta trap when baited with ethyl (E,Z)...

effect of different ratios of sucrose to fruit concentrate (orange and sour cherry), level of cacl2 (0-2%) and storage time (0-90 days) on physicochemical properties of candied apples were investigated using of a combined design. different quality indices such as total sugars content, ascorbic acid, color attribute (chroma) and overall acceptance were modeled and then multiobjective optimizatio...

Gnathostoma spinigerum third stage larvae antigen is necessary for Western blot analysis in the diagnosis of Gnathostomiasis. Acid pepsin solution is required for digestion of eel's liver( Fluta alba ) to yield the larvae for antigen preparation. Here, he reported the feasibility of using orange juice as an alternative to enzyme pepsin in harvesting Gnathostoma spinigerum third stage larvae. Fr...

Seaweeds are rich sources of bioactive natural products, which have been considered as potential biotic agents. Ulva flexuosa Wulfen is a species of seaweed which is endemic to the Persian Gulf. In this study, the effect of different concentrations of U. flexuosa extract on  the  antioxidant activity of Washington Navel orange (Citrus sinensis L. cv. Washington Navel)...

Here, a comprehensive proteomic analysis of the chromoplasts purified from sweet orange using Nycodenz density gradient centrifugation is reported. A GeLC-MS/MS shotgun approach was used to identify the proteins of pooled chromoplast samples. A total of 493 proteins were identified from purified chromoplasts, of which 418 are putative plastid proteins based on in silico sequence homology and fu...

Preliminary studies by Beers et a2. (1) have shown that the zinc salt of acridine orange can either inhibit or accelerate the rate of polymerization of polynucleotides by polynucleotide phosphorylase of Micrococcus lysodeileticus, depending upon the experimental conditions. We have now confirmed these findings with the zinc-free dye. Some evidence for a reversal of inhibition with degraded ribo...

drought is one of the most important environmental factors which limit the growth of woody plants. iran is located in arid and semi-arid area therefore the growth and cultivation of ornamental trees and shrubs were limited. for this purpose, effect of foliar-applied salicylic acid and/or spermidine (0, 100, 500 and 1000 µmol) on reduce drought stress injuries of one-year seedlings ofosage orang...

conclusions orange peel essential oil did not reduce postpartum depression and anxiety. background mothers are vulnerable to mental disorders, such as depression and anxiety, in the 6-week postpartum period after delivery. objectives this study was performed to determine the potential effect of orange peel essential oil on postpartum depression and anxiety. patients and methods this double-blin...

This research describes a voltammetric approach to determine amounts of vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) in orange juice sample, using three screen printed electrode. The anodic currents of vitamin C were proportional to vitamin C concentration in the range of 0 – 10.0 mM with the limit of detection of 1.36 mM. The method was successfully employed with 2 μL of the working solution dropped on the elect...
