Few studies have evaluated vegetable soybean for sugar content at the green pod stage. Information on combining ability and type of gene action that governs inheritance of seed traits can help breeders to select suitable parents and devise an appropriate breeding strategy. Ten vegetable soybean accessions were crossed in a complete diallel mating design. Parent lines and F2 and F3 progenies wer...

backgrounds and objectives: in recent years, food industries and scientists are about to decrease the energy intake of food products according to the rising rate in obesity and the problems of consuming high-caloric products. considering all the benefits the sucrose possess as a natural sweetener, due to some health issues such as, high blood pressure, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, tooth de...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of diets having different fermentability on blood gases, blood metabolites and ruminal fermentation parameters in Holstein dairy cows. Four multiparous Holstein dairy cows (665 ± 25 kg BW, 170 ± 7.0 DIM and 15±1.5 kg of milk yield), fitted with rumen cannulae, were used in a 4×4 Latin Square design with 28-d periods. Corn starch and sucro...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the supplementary effect of higher concentrations of various disaccharides on processing yield, major physicochemical properties, and sensory attributes of Chinese-style pork jerky (CSPJ). METHODS CSPJ samples were prepared by marinating sliced ham (4 mm) with three dissaccharides, including sucrose, lactose, and maltose, at 0%, 15%, 18%, 21%, and 24%. Subsequen...

Plant galactolipid synthesis on the outer envelope membranes of chloroplasts is an important biosynthetic pathway for sustained growth under conditions of phosphate (Pi) depletion. During Pi starvation, the amount of digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) is increased to substitute for the phospholipids that are degraded for supplying Pi. An increase in DGDG concentration depends on an adequate supp...

[Ru(bpy)2(PVP)10] (RuPVP (bpy = 2,2-bipyridyl; PVP = poly(4-vinylpyridine)) was synthesized and characterized as described previously. Styrene (MW= 104.15), 2Acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF, MW= 223.27), 4-(Methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK, MW= 207.23), poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA, average Mw= 100,000200,000), poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS, average MW= 70000),...

Excision of developing potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers from the mother plant, followed by storage at 10 degrees C, resulted in a rapid, substantial decrease in sucrose synthase activity and considerable increases in hexose content and acid invertase activity. A comparison of the response of three genotypes, known to accumulate different quantities of hexoses in storage, showed that both su...

In pharmaceutical view, nanoemulsion is one of the major dosage forms in delivering active ingredients to the target area which has attracted considerable attention in recent years for its application in personal care and cosmetic products also due to their ability to improve the penetration and permeation of active ingredients through the skin. The aim of this study was to formulate nanoemulsi...

The control of photosynthetic starch/sucrose formation in leaves of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) cultivars was studied in relation to stage of plant development, photosynthetic photoperiod, and nitrogen source. At each sampling, leaf tissue was analyzed for starch content, activities of sucrose-metabolizing enzymes, and labeling of starch and sucrose (by (14)CO(2) assimilation) in isolated ce...

effect of sucrose replacement with date syrup powder on physiochemical properties of sponge cake such as specific gravity, volume, apparent density, solid density, porosity, symmetry, moisture content, water activity, crust color and textural firmness was studied. batter specific gravity of the control sample was higher than that of other samples. sucrose replacement with 100% of date syrup pow...
