on experiment was designed for evaluating the nutritienal characteristics and physico-chemical properties of steam treated sugarcane pith (19 bar, 3 min.) and some other roughages. steam treatment resulted in a significant decreased (p<0.05) in ndf (77 vs. 55%), hemicellulose to cellulose ratio (0.54 vs. 0.10) and increased hemicellulose solubility of and soluble sugar fraction (20 vs. 124 mg/g...

The current research was undertaken to develop and evaluate dissolution profiles of thermodynamically stabilized sugar dispersions of the poorly water-soluble, model drug etoricoxib (ETX). Fused-sugar dispersions were formulated using sorbitol, xylitol, and maltose separately, and the binary systems were stabilized by incorporation of the antiplasticizing agents poloxamer 407 and PVP K30 to obt...

Brewer’s yeast is rich in protein, amino acids, water soluble vitamins (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid, vitamin B12 and pyridoxine), which also a source of minerals, chromium (an essential mineral that helps the body maintain normal blood sugar levels), copper, zinc, selenium. The paper proposes processes for processing waste brewer’s can be used food, cosmetic medical industries. com...

A sweet water-soluble protein that reminds stable over wide ranges of temperature and pH, Brazzein has various applications. Its tastes like cane sugar but have no calories. However, the extraction of brazzein from its natural source is expensive and not applicable. In this study we used recombinant DNA technology to provide an alternative option for cheaper mass production of brazzein. A brazz...

Objective: Salt stress is a world-wide problem and soil salinity is common in arid and semi-arid regions. This study was undertaken to investigate salt tolerance in Salsola orientalis in laboratory and natural conditions and recognize the mechanisms that allow it to tolerate these conditions. Methods: This study had two parts of greenhouse and natural habitats. The treatment s...

In this study some selected chemical properties such as total soluble solids, pH, total acidity, formalin index,  reduced sugar content and ascorbic acid of major sour cherry cultivated grown in different provinces of Iran corresponding were investigated.  Minerals K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result showed...

A certain combination of natural products in the solid state becomes liquid, so called natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES). Recently, they have been considered promising new green solvents for foods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals due to their unique solvent power which can dissolve many non-water-soluble compounds and their low toxicity. However, in addition to the features as solvents, the ...

Water salinity and drought are the major abiotic stresses limiting turf grass growth. On the other hand, shortage of waterresources and salinity of water and soil in the arid and semi-arid zones such as Iran, are the restricting factors in developinglawn turf grasses. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of water salinity and deficit irrigation ontall fescue (Festuca aru...
