This work has been carried out to evaluate biologically the safety utilization of the byproducts, namely orange peel and permeate and investigate the antioxidant role of them against the oxidative stress in lipid peroxidation induced in adult albino rats by the oral ingestion of CCL . The lipid profile namely total 4 cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglycerides were performed and the results indicat...

STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate the hemodynamic and electrocardiographic effects of a single dose of commercially available bitter-orange dried-fruit extract, which is increasingly being used in dietary supplements. DESIGN Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study. SETTING University of Connecticut, Storrs Campus. SUBJECTS Eighteen healthy volunteers aged 18 years or older...

Between 1961 and 1971, military herbicides were used by the United States and allied forces for military purposes. Agent Orange, the most-used herbicide, was a mixture of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid, and contained an impurity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Many Korean Vietnam veterans were exposed to Agent Orange during the Vietna...

Photocatalytic decolorization of Methyl Orange (MO) solution has been studied using phosphotungstic acid (HPA) as photocatalyst. The decolorization reaction of MO solution is photocatalysis. The paper reveals that the optimal loading of photocatalyst for decolorization of MO solution (10 mg/L) is 0.6 g/L. The results show that the photocatalytic decolorization reaction of MO with HPA in a h...

Article info: Received: 18 October 2012 Accepted: 10 December 2012 ABSTRACT Orange and lemon peels were used for obtaining pectic polysaccharides. Citrus peels were previously treated with 96% ethanol, and the obtained alcoholinsoluble solids (AIS) were subjected to a sequential extraction with hot distilled water and hot 0.5% HCl. Waterand acid-extracted orange (WEOP and AEOP) and lemon (WELP ...

the migration of aluminum (al) from aseptic laminated paperboard packages was studied by monitoring the al content of orange juice (plain juice, no additives) filled into such packages and stored at ambient temperature (23ºc) for up to 1 year. analytical procedure includes mw-assisted digestion of orange juice with concentrated nitric acid followed by determination of al concentration by double-...

In an earlier study, an electronic tongue system (e-tongue) has been used to differentiate between orange juice made from healthy fruit and from fruit affected by the citrus greening or Huanglongbing (HLB) disease. This study investigated the reaction of an e-tongue system to the main chemicals in orange juice that impact flavor and health benefits and are also impacted by HLB. Orange juice was...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of plant growth regulators on in vitro shoot multiplication, vitrification and rooting of two carnation cultivars (Eskimo Mogr and Innove Orange Bogr). Isolated axillary buds were cultured on MS medium supplemented with different levels of Benzyl amino purine (BAP) or kinetin (Kin) in combination with 0.2 mg/l NAA and shoot multiplication and vitr...

In this study, a new reaction system for quantitative determination of ascorbic acid was introduced. The developed method is based on inhibitory effect of ascorbic acid on the Orange G-bromate system. The change in absorbance was followed spectrophotometrically at 478 nm. The dependence of sensitivity on the reaction variables including reagents concentration, temperature and time was investiga...
