The changes in some physicochemical properties, sugar, organic acid and volatile compound contents fresh Verdani grape (Vitis vinifera L.) juice (FGJ) were evaluated the production of its traditional molasses (pekmez). After production, total soluble solid (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), glucose, fructose, malic, citric succinic concentrations increased (P

In this study, the effect of spermidine (SP) treatments at different doses after harvest on changes in pomological and biochemical contents nectarine fruits was determined. The were placed cold storage (4 ± 0.5 °C 90 5% RH) for 30 days. Specific organic acids phenolic compounds from analyzed by HPLC device. Weight loss decay values, which are quality criteria fruits, increased during compared t...

Extracts of a fluorescent species of Pseudomonas grown with m-cresol, degrade gentisic acid without isomerization of the ring-fission compound, maleylpyruvate, to give eventually d-malate and pyruvate. d-Malate is also a growth substrate. l-Malate but not d-malate is oxidized by a particulate enzyme not requiring nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosp...

Background: Leaves of 15 plant species were collected from the catchment areas of the river Beas, Punjab, India, and analyzed for organic acids of tricarboxylic acid cycle, viz., citric acid (CA), succinic acid (SA), fumaric acid (FmA), and malic acid (MA). Methods: Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to determine the content of organic acids in the leaves of plant species. Tw...

To quantify the relationships between buffering properties and acid erosion and hence improve models of erosive potential of acidic drinks, a pH-stat was used to measure the rate of enamel dissolution in solutions of citric, malic and lactic acids, with pH 2.4-3.6 and with acid concentrations adjusted to give buffer capacities (β) of 2-40 (mmol·l(-1))·pH(-1) for each pH. The corresponding undis...
