Five millimolar KCN reduced water permeability in 1-millimeter thick slices of potato tuber (Solanum tuberosum L.). One-tenth millimolar ATP and CTP prevented or reversed the reduced permeability. UTP and GTP were not effective. Five millimolar ammonium carbonate or 0.1 millimolar 2,4-dinitrophenol also reduced water permeability, but ATP and CTP were only partially effective in reversing the r...

Among physical attributes, dimensions and weight of agricultural products are important parameters that useful for designing grading/packaging systems. Size measurements usually require extensive time labor. Moreover, it is often difficult to accurately do the having irregular shapes, such as sweet potatoes. Even though there many previous works on topic, they either lack accuracy or multiple c...

Air-coupled ultrasound could be considered a suitable on-line technique for the non-invasive industrial testing of potato products manufactured in slices such as dried, fried or baked chips. Thus, aim present study is to test feasibility air-coupled monitor modifications physicochemical parameters caused by drying. For that purpose, (6 mm) were air dried (60 °C) different drying times (15, 90, ...

during the years 2007 and 2008, samples of winter jasmine (jasminum nudiflorum) with symptoms of galls on shoots were collected from shiraz, fars province, iran. gram and oxidase negative, aerobic bacterium that produced fluorescent pigment on kingۥs b medium was isolated from galls of infected trees. all isolates produced a hypersensitive reaction in tobacco. they were negative in arginine dih...
