Walnut (Juglans regia L.) is a tree with significant economic value and usage for human health and various food industries. However, fresh walnut kernels are a less widespread product than the dried kernels. This study aimed to determine the fresh walnut kernel properties including, fatty acid composition, proximate composition, total phenolics (TPs), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), acidic, p...

Background and objectives: Iranian traditional medicine (ITM) resources have recommended different formulations for overcoming hair loss which is a beauty concern worldwide; one of these recommendations is amla oil which has been mentioned to be considerably effective. In the present study, amla oil has been formulated according to ITM and the quality control assessment of the ...

Oils extracted from Blighia sapida fruits are usually consumed without any information on its chemical composition. However the bad quality of oil can be a source toxicity. Thus, aim this study is to investigate physicochemical B. Togolese flora. To reach goal study, mature and immature arils were used for extraction by solvent method using hexane. The parameters including density, acid value, ...

Objective: Vascular corrosion casting is crucial tool for three-dimensional study. Focusing on the gross anatomy, large fatty tissue reacts with corrosive agents resulting in extensive saponification. Our study aimed to prevent saponification by a) finding optimal temperature and concentration of agent b) comparing flow conventional “non-flow” setting.
 Materials Methods: Phase I: pig tiss...
