carbohydrate flow between vegetative and reproductive parts of trees is one of the determining factors of yield and fruit quality. therefore, it varies during different times of growth season. the aim of this study was to investigate the carbohydrate content variation during growth season between leaf and fruit of nectarine. so, eight nectarine trees cv. red gold selected randomly in the orchar...

The study was conducted to investigate the potential of Parkia biglobosa fruit pulp as substrate for citric acid production by Aspergillus niger. Reducing sugar was estimated by 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid and citric acid was estimated spectrophotometrically using pyridine-acetic anhydride methods. The studies revealed that production parameters (pH, inoculum size, substrate concentration, incuba...

considered to be the cleanest liquid fuel, bioethanol can be a reliable alternative to fossil fuels. it is produced by fermentation of sugar components of plant materials. the common onions are considered to be a favorable source of fermentation products as they have high sugar contents as well as contain various nutrients. this study focused on the effective production of ethanol from an endem...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the sugar, energy and caffeine content of sugar-sweetened drinks marketed and consumed as energy drinks available in the UK. STUDY DESIGN We carried out a cross-sectional survey in 2015 and 2017 of energy drinks available in the main UK retailers. METHODS The sugar (sugars g/100 mL), energy (kcal/100 mL), caffeine (mg/100 mL) and serving size were collected from pr...

to evaluate yield and productivity indices of maize and sugar beet intercropping with different planting ratios, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replication at hamedan province in nahavand, in 2013. the planting ratios were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100 (maiz: sugar beet) using replacement method. results showed that intercropping had signi...

Coconut inflorescence sap (CIS) is sweet, oyster-white and translucent and was reported to be highly nutritive and a good digestive agent. The chemical composition changes including total sugar, reducing sugar, ethanol, total acidity, volatile acid, amino acid, vitamin C and total phenolic contents of postharvest coconut inflorescence sap (PCIS) were investigated during a 12-day natural ferment...

Between 1947 and 1958, B.C. Sugar—western Canada’s largest sugar manufacturer—ran six major advertising campaigns that depicted Black people as laborers on sugarcane plantations. One of these campaigns, moreover, played upon offensive stereotypes men happy-go-lucky, childlike, suited for manual labor. Analyzing the reach, content, significances this article suggests despite increased civil huma...

Optimizing cellulosic ethanol yield depends strongly on understanding the biological variation of feedstocks. Our objective was to study variation in capacity for producing fermentable sugars from straw of winter wheat cultivars with a high-throughput pretreatment and hydrolysis well-plate technique. This technique enabled us to estimate cultivarrelated and environmental correlations between su...

The reducing sugar content of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) roots increased during 30 days of storage at 21 C and 160 days at 5 C as a result of an increase in acid invertase activity. Sucrose synthetase and neutral invertase activities were high at harvest but declined during storage, thus showing no relationship with postharvest reducing sugar accumulation in sugar beet roots. Acid alpha-gluc...
