lemon is one of the most important citrus fruit and is consumed as fresh and dry. in this study the effect of fruit moisture content on the size, sphericity, geometric mean diameters and kernel density were studied. the bulk density and porosity were also evaluated in three different arrangements. airflow resistance is a fundamental parameter for designing an efficient drying and aeration syste...

The composition of the essential oils of Thymus pulegioides L. plants growing wild in Vilnius district (Lithuania) with "ester", lemon and carvacrol (phenol) odours were collected in one location and investigated by GC, GC/MS and IR-spectroscopy. The essential oils with lemon and carvacrol odour belong to corresponding known citral-geraniol and carvacrol chemotypes. The essential oil of plants ...

Arora, Barak, Brunnermeier, and Ge [ABBG10] showed that taking computational complexity into account, a dishonest seller could increase the lemon costs of a family of financial derivatives dramatically. We show that if the seller is required to construct derivatives of a certain form, then this phenomenon disappears. In particular, we define and construct pseudorandom derivative families, for w...

in this research, effect of vermicompost and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on physiological traits of lemon balm under drought stress condition was investigated in year 2012 at karaj research institute of forest and rangelands. experiment was conducted as split-split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation (normal: irrigated to field capacity...

heat stress is an effective factor on immune responses, body weight, egg production and egg quality of chickens. the major effect of heat stress is due to decreased food intake and alteration in acid-base balance. during the recent years, efforts to improve laying performance at high temperatures have been relatively successful. supplementation of the diet or drinking water with special nutrien...

Lemon juice and other lemon-based beverages are subject to economically motivated fraud, primarily inclu­ding a reduced fruit content closely related excessive dilution with water, undeclared addition of sugars or synthetic citric acid, substitution lemons cheaper fruit. Eight tested samples 100% juices showed good agreement between the measured concentrations reference values for following mar...
