The effects of extraction solvents (hexane, ethyl-acetate, acetone, ethanol, methanol, and water) on the content of phytochemicals including total polyphenols, flavonoids and condensed tannins, as well as antioxidant activities of walnut green husk were investigated. The results showed that extraction solvents significantly affected phytochemicals content and antioxidant activities of walnut gr...

due to the complex assessment of young walnut cultivars (juglansregia l.) based on morphological traits, advance molecular tools have provided a new prospect for cultivar identification and dna fingerprinting. in this study, specific molecular keys were identified for 5 iranian walnut cultivars (juglansregia l.) using 30 ssr markers. the results showed that 5 ssr markers produced polymorphic ba...

The Machine Vision Team of Industrial Research Limited (formerly part of the New Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research) is involved in a wide range of machine vision research and development projects. This paper gives an overview of three projects which have particular relevance to the meat industry. The projects discussed are: (i) development of a laser scanning inspection s...

For at least the past decade, an unusual decline of black walnut (Juglans nigra) has been observed in several western states. Initial symptoms involve a yellowing and thinning of the upper crown, which progresses to include death of progressively larger branches (Figure 1). During the final stages large areas of foliage may rapidly wilt. Trees often are killed within three years after initial s...

AIM Identification of cyclopropyl fatty acids in walnut oil. METHOD GC/MS method was developed for the determination of eight cyclopropyl fatty acids in walnut (Juglans regia) oil. RESULTS Monocyclopropane acids: methyl 9-cyclopropyl-nonanoate, 6,7-methylene-, 8,9-methylene-, 9,10-methylene-, 11,12-methylene octadecanoates, and dicyclic acid - methyl 9,10,12,13-dimethylene octadecanoate, tr...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has been used to measure levels of anion cross-incorporation and to study interface formation for the mixed anion GaSb/lnAs heterojunction. Anion cross-incorporation was measured in 20 A thick GaSb layers grown on lnAs, and 20 A thick InAs layers grown on GaSb for cracked and uncracked sources. It was found that significantly less anion cross-incorporation occur...

Yellow phosphorus is a toxic substance used in the production of firework cracker, fireworks, ammunition and agricultural dung. When ingested, it shows its effects mainly in the liver, the kidneys, and the brain. A four-year-old girl had died as a result of acute hepatic failure caused by ingesting a firework cracker. The case showed high levels of hepatic enzymes, along with non-specific signs...

Puli crackers are an SME business in Indonesia which has a fairly good protein composition and is usually used as souvenirs of Madura. The problems most Indonesia’s SMEs still using manual labour with makeshift equipment. the assistant machines available market have large capacity so they not easy to use on household scale small electrical capacity. development method design energy-efficient ge...
